Where did you get the serial from? It is not displayed externally on the aircraft as far as I can see.

Don't like the paint job (and the commercial for akzonobel)

Whoa! Did they get someone from the '80's to design this paint job? They'll be laughed at during airshows if they perform alongside the Dutch and Belgian demo! :evil:

seen it, hate it, looks more like a scheme from the YF-16 prototype.
and a silver-metallic underbelly, that barely shows anything, both in the air as on the ground.
im sorry, but i was expecting a bit better from the norwegians, lets hope the display is more impressive then the paintjob.

at does have 1 good point.
its easy for scale modelerers to build/paint :D

Some harsh 'opinions' here, but I wonder how many have seen this paintjob in the flesh before commenting. Probably nobody.

Judging from what I've seen, it's very cool, tastefull and certainly different.... and especially that last part takes some getting used to by a lot - as usual.

Luckily everyone is entitled to have his own opinion. Yours is refreshing between the others who appearantly are similar minded...

Lovely retro colors. Nice bare metal undersite. A relief with all that air brush violence :wink:
