Airplanes that SMILE! :D

[jfrye01]

Y'know what I'm talking about, we've all seen them...those airplanes that have cowls that look like smiles...I'll start off the list:
anything Cubcrafters
Piper PA22 (Tri-Pacer has a Hitler-style mustache thrown in!)

What airplanes have YOU caught looking like they're up to no good??

Two happy engines. "GIVE ME AIR!!!!!!"

That thing has a look of pure, utter regret...it's like, "I trusted you, and this is what you did to me!"

Good eyes, everyone! Never noticed some of these, especially the DC-8!

I'd say by the looks of the cable stretched out, he probably had a hung gear or unsafe gear issue.

Early chemtrail trials with the mighty Convair 880.

anything Cubcrafters

The Sport Cub's smiley face starred in an American Express TV commercial a couple of years ago. It was one of many inanimate objects that looked like they were frowning or smiling.

These are the same guys who had the "We'll wiggle our tails for you" ad campaign before the flight attendants protested.

PSA did have "hot pants" FA uniforms, but the line you're thinking of was from Continental ("The Proud Bird with the Golden Tail"):

"We really move our tail for you
To make your every wish come true
On Continental Airlines
We really move our tail for yoooouuuuuuu!"

The 1st gen Bellanca 14-19 with the Lyc O-435 always made me think of Jimmy Durante.

It needs an open mouth for the radiator. I bet you have an open mouth when you are running, too.
