[QUOTE="Just call me Ray, post: 28973, member: 795"] It was basically just a cheap cardboard cut-out that would be put on the plane when it was being towed. Up close it probably wouldn't fool anybody, but then again probably only "authorized personnel" were allowed to get up-close. Of course, I like their solution as to how to disguise this thing when it was up in the air - rather than cover up the fact that it was a jet, they had the pilots wear gorilla suits so that every time someone saw this thing up in the air, they thought they were going crazy and the base shrink would convince them that this plane didn't exist :) [/QUOTE]
