I'm sure in a ready room somewhere the following conversation was had, "You know what I'm going to do on my last day as a US Navy fighter pilot . . . "
https://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/11/17/navy-admits-its-aircraft-drew-lewd-images-in-sky.html
Personal thoughts: I thinks its hilarious. Probably not the best use of a $40,000,000 aircraft, but hilarious. Also, an impressive piece of art when you consider F-18's don't have smoke, so he had to climb in and out of contrailling altitude to begin and end the "drawing".
I laughed at that. I don't see why the Navy would even bother to apologize, apparently there's a lot of blowhards out there.
Apparently people are offended by sky penises

I don't see the problem, it looks like Marge Simpson wearing sunglasses. I guess it could be the Arby's hat.

Best advertising ever for kids to aspire to be a military pilot!!
The chemtrails are really screwing us.
This begs for a Weird Al song to the tune of "Wheel in the Sky".
I'm gonna be honest here. I read the title to the thread and expected something "untoward", but my first thought upon seeing the image was that there was a cartoon character with an extra tall 10 gallon hat and that was his hat. For the life of me I can't remember the character's name...
Tower this is Ghost Rider, requesting a flyby.
Negative Ghost Rider, the pattern has a headache.

It's not a lewd drawing. The pilot just didn't get a chance to finish it.
I will admit I never understood some people's need to draw dicks everywhere.

Well, look on the bright side...at least it wasn't a bag of dicks. 
I saw a tall 10 gal hat.
Much to do about nothing.
I wonder if you could see that from Henessy Honda of Woodstock...

Curious George, "Man with a Yellow Hat" perhaps?
First I saw, I thought 10-gal hat as well.

I feel like this comment got criminally overlooked. Well played, sir.

Personally, this is probably the best use of my tax dollars i've seen in a long time

The reviews for that place are hysterical. Entertainment.
The real money is in merchandising. Introducing Sky Penis: The Ornament
