That's a decent livery all right, and a great price. As the members above said, the Hartmann and Barkhorn are both favorites, likely because those guys are both the only aces in the 300 Club...with Hartmann's 352 being the top score of all time, while Barkhorn wasn't far behind with 301. Both those liveries are great as well, my favorite is Hartmann's due to his status, while Barkhorn's comes close behind. The Finland "snow leopard" scheme is a nice scheme, but from what I've read in pilot histories, the Kanoneboote Gustavs weren't great manuvering machines, the underwing 20 mike mikes spoiled the manuverability of the Messerschmitt, and made them easy prey for Allied escort fighters over the Reich. Most Finnish 109s had their underwing gondalas removed because the Finns didn't like the flying characteristics of them either...they ought to be in a position to know something as they scored pretty well with even the miserable Brewster Buffalo.

Still, it's a good livery, a rare variant, and a good price. Grab it while you can.
