Code: [Select]

Mira Slovak's "Mr. Mennen" (Race #21) P-39Q Airacobra was a very fast unlimited racer; a late arrival in 1972 kept this little 2,000 hp (1,491 kW) racer out of the Reno
 races, and it was never entered again. Its color scheme was all white with "Mennen" green and bronze trim. It is now owned and displayed by the Kalamazoo Air Zoo. The P-
39Q (former USAAC serial no. 44-3908/NX40A), is painted as a P-400, "Whistlin' Britches."

I have been trying to make this skin but the rudder will have to be compleately changed. so it wont be historical.

Edit: Hears a sample with edited rudder:

A very sweet looking skin there :D ...incedently, Mennen means 'I go' or 'go (do) I' in Finnish.

  Ends of words change to signify yourself/myself, you, them (here), them over there, was, will be, to, from, on, under, going, coming, close, by, far etc, and many many more meanings, tenses etc; similar to Latin.
