The P-40: An Amazing Plane… and Tattoo!

What many of us don’t know is that the legendary P-40 plane not only looks stunning in the sky but also on the different parts of the body… as a tattoo.

Yes, aviation junkies have taken it to another level. Tattoos In Flight is a website dedicated to flight-themed tattoos. According to the site’s description, “Tattoos in Flight is an ongoing gallery of aviation, flying, aerospace and flight-related tattoos collected from around the web — displaying the passion for the sky exhibited by the wearer. We feature the most skilled artists from around the world who excel in tattooing this unique subject matter, allowing aviation and aerospace enthusiasts to make more informed decisions in choosing a tattoo artist.”

One of the popular choices for flight-themed tattoo designs is the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk plane as shown in the image below.

The P-40 tattoo was done by artist Pat B. of Green Man Tattoo in West Hartford, Connecticut. The beauty of the P-40 plane is truly captured in such an amazing tattoo.
