Looks a little like the one we had in the storage hanger in Olympia...

Hopefully it was delivered by truck and not by air! Hate that buzzing sound, hate it even more when it stops!

Could it be the one from Paul Allen's Flying Heritage Collection?
I know he had two, one was a piloted version.
Maybe it's on loan?

Shouldn't it have German markings? Or were some of them unmarked?

I'm no expert on these things but the FHC unmanned version has no markings either so i'd assume some didn't.

I checked, it wasn't the one we have in Olympia. It's still in the hanger.
Jack, you and I are talking about the same one. It wound up, after a lot of research, that the stuff in the rear fuselage was an artistic display about the futility of war...or something like that. As cool as it looked all the stuff in there was just junk. It's all still in there though!

Hi,
this isn't a 103 it's a JB-2 Loon.

The V-1s never carried national markings since they were considered ordinance not aircraft. You see some marked that way in some museums and sometimes on photos of captured ones but operationally they never had them.
