40th AS, Screaming Eagle Herks - The ACC Years

Hello,

I was a GAC troop at Dyess from 91-96. I remember when we transitioned from AMC to ACC, the aircraft were allowed to have nose art.

Does anybody have any photos of the nose art that was on any of the aircraft during that time? I remember a few of the aircraft having some pretty impressive artwork applied to them. If I recall, 1689 was "Gizmo" and had a gremlin painted on the side of it. Aircraft 1677 was Rubber Chicken, but I don't think Howie Jack ever got his nose art approve.

Do anyone have any pics of these Herks? The reason I am inquiring, is that I would like to an in-flight model an ACC 40 AS Dyess Herk, but there's not a lot of photos on the internet.

Yea...there's a few 40AS Herks from that time period in the Gallery, but no one seemed to capture the left side of the aircraft.

Here's 1675, 39AS from that era. You can't make out the nose art.
