Duncan Aviation and Ripley’s Prove That Pigs Can Fly
Cessna Citation XLS+ paint scheme goes hog wild
Wings, a gold nose ring, and a chicken earring give the Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Citation 560XLS+ its pig persona.
Duncan Aviation painted a 17-color flying pig scheme on this Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Citation 560XLS+.

Believe it or not, pigs can fly—or at least one can, in the form of a Cessna Citation XLS+ that Duncan Aviation painted to look like a winged pig for Ripley’s Believe It or Not! The Lincoln, Nebraska-based MRO provider, which is exhibiting this week at NBAA-BACE, unveiled the flying work of art on Friday.

Painted in 17 colors, the “flying pig” sports a gold nose ring and a gold earring shaped like a rubber chicken. White feathered wings decorate the fuselage above the airplane’s actual wings, which are painted to resemble a partly cloudy blue sky. Ripley’s branding appears on the engines and tail.
