A note on the curve complex of the 3-holed projective plane

Let $S$ be a projective plane with $3$ holes. We prove that there is an exhaustion of the curve complex $\mathcal{C}(S)$ by a sequence of finite rigid sets. As a corollary, we obtain that the group of simplicial automorphisms of $\mathcal{C}(S)$ is isomorphic to the mapping class group $\mathrm{M}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{d}(S)$. We also prove that $\mathcal{C}(S)$ is quasi-isometric to a simplicial tree.
