It looks like a custom to me. If you look at the 1st and 3rd pics you get 2 different views of the 104 but the background is the same. Note the C-47 sitting on its right wing.

When 21st first announced the 104, they said that one of the series was going to be a Bavarian livery. I had said I was going to hold out to buy one until it came out. Well, this is a couple years since the plane was released, and I am 2 104s into it--still no Bavarian scheme. :roll:

I swore I wouldn't buy another Repaint but I might have to take that back its a great paint scheme. There is another I'd like to see a Greek F-104G with the Eagle painted all over it.

They don't update their site too often (especially the English version). In fact, I was surprised that they still had the NKK Spitfire in stock last summer.

PS: Let's hope 21st does a "sligyhtly" better job this time around with the blue diamonds than they did last time with the checkers on the Eileen and BBD noses/wingtips.

The special Greek F-104s are amazing!

Who wouldn't want that hanging on their ceiling, or even sitting on their desk?

Ya know, this 104 might just ace out the airspace I'd been reserving for Hartmann's Sabre.
