What more can be said about the North American P-51 Mustang that hasn’t been said here on Tattoos In Flight before? Though it’s a close call as to whether the Curtiss P-40 Warhawk or the P-51 Mustang holds the title for “Most Tattooed Airplane” here at the site, I still am amazed at how many people choose the Mustang as a permanent tribute to airpower.
This particular P-51 tattoo — a beautiful color backpiece — was created by tattoo artist Carlos Rubio of Club Tattoo in Mesa, AZ. The flatness of the upper shoulders and back makes it easier to appreciate the straight lines and edges of the wings of the P-51.
