Humm

the national marking of the star and bars is a WW2 version
Lockheed "Viking" Fly 1:33-stars-til-1947.jpg

and not the version current to the Viking back in the 60's or 70's or 80's
here is the correct version:
Lockheed "Viking" Fly 1:33-star-newer.gif
Lockheed "Viking" Fly 1:33-viking.jpg

The kit maker took some liberties here.
