CAAC operated the aircraft under state management before transferring it to China Eastern Airlines on 1 May 1988. On 26 October 1993, the aircraft, then operating as China Eastern flight MU5398 from Shenzhen to Fuzhou, overran the runway at Fuzhou Yixu Airport and was written off. NG Models NG83017 captures B-2103 in its original CAAC livery, the period between delivery and the 1988 transition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eLivery \u0026amp; Visual Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe model carries the classic CAAC state livery: a white fuselage with a horizontal dark blue stripe composed of connected oval shapes running from nose to tail above the window line. The nose cone features a thin solid blue contour stripe below the cockpit windows. A blue stylized bird\/phoenix logo with \"CAAC\" in blue appears near the nose. Large Chinese characters reading \"Zhongguo Minhang\" (Civil Aviation Administration of China) appear on the forward fuselage in blue. The vertical stabilizer is divided: the left face shows the national flag of the People's Republic of China — red field with five yellow stars — while the right face carries the same Chinese characters in white on a gray background. Engine nacelles are white, rear-mounted on either side of the aft fuselage, characteristic of the MD-82 configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eModel Craft \u0026amp; Collectibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProduced by NG Models at 1:400 scale in diecast metal, NG83017 captures a relatively short operational period — B-2103 wore the CAAC livery for fewer than three years before repainting as China Eastern. The state-era CAAC livery has no modern commercial airline equivalent, making it a historically distinct subject. This is a 2025 production release.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScale\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1:400\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRegistration\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eB-2103\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAircraft Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMcDonnell Douglas MD-82\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMSN\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e49355\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEngines\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePratt \u0026amp; Whitney JT8D-217C × 2 (rear-mounted)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.26 cm \/ 4.39 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWingspan (model)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8.21 cm \/ 3.20 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDiecast Metal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModel Item #\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNG83017\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTo ensure you receive a flawless model, we perform a mandatory physical inspection on every item before shipment.
