Apologies for the poor image quality, but check out Joe Heller in his A-2 with the 12th AF incised patch, squadron patch and Capri bell!

Excellent photos. One can clearly see the patch of the 488th Bombardment Squadron on his A-2 in the first image. And he almost looks like Alan Arkin in the second image!

In the spirit of "military but not only" a few photos of British aviator who died this day [Jan 5th] 1941

From Wikipedia..

Amy Johnson CBE (born 1 July 1903 – disappeared 5 January 1941) was a pioneering English pilot who was the first woman to fly solo from London to Australia.

Flying solo or with her husband, Jim Mollison, she set many long-distance records during the 1930s. In 1933, Katharine Hepburn's character in the film Christopher Strong was inspired by Johnson. She flew in the Second World War as a part of the Air Transport Auxiliary. Her aircraft crashed into the Thames Estuary: she died after bailing out. Because her body was never recovered, the precise cause of her death—drowning, hypothermia or being pulled into a warship's moving propellers, is unknown and has been a subject of discussion since the possibility of friendly fire was raised in 1999
