In November 2006 the glamour models Lucy Pinder and Michelle
Marsh visited British forces in Afghanistan, including the Harrier
detachment at Kandahar. In their honour, two aircraft were painted
with ‘pin-up’ nose art depicting the girls – although they were painted
as silhouettes rather than colour images in order not to upset local
sensitivities. This aircraft was named Lucy and featured the message
‘Good work guys! Love & kisses, Lucy XXX’ that Lucy Pinder wrote
near the mission markings denoting kinetic events. The increased
activity of the Taliban insurgency during 2006 is reflected in the large
number of symbols – 19 LGBs and three airburst 540-lb freefall
bombs. The aircraft is loaded with two 1000-lb Paveway II LGBs and
carries TIALD pod.
