This aircraft was painted as part of âThe Boneyard Projectâ in which a number of derelict military aircraft from the scrapyards adjacent to the AMARG storage facility were used as canvases by contemporary artists. The artists in this case were How and Nosm, the working names of identical twin brothers Raoul and Davide Perre, and the work is entitled âTime Flies Byâ.
