You can't wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.

Wow, impressive paint-job. But if I'm not mistaken, they'll have the fire and smoke ("smaug") coming from the wrong end of that critter.
I was raised by humans. What's your excuse?

Really, though, they did an amazing job. I mean, how much more appropriate of a name could anyone find for a jet aircraft?
