  1. Some details caught my eye... why the tips of the wings are black? Though it looks like whole tip section is black... And why do they have yellow ventral air stabilizers?

  2. Thanks for pointing that out, Mariusz. I just overlooked the unusual black wing tips. Great catch! But the ventral air stabilizer at right could be simply a replacement (spare part), painted with a yellow primer instead of green.

    Any explanation from the Idaho Hog guys?

  3. That could be the answer - spare parts. Looking again on the picture I have noticed black stripes between pylons. Also spare parts?
