Hi together!
The blue belly MD-11 is a corporate model and Swissair ordered 1000 pcs. as inflight models. They planned to sell 800 pcs. only on board and 200 pcs. for the several hobby shops here in Switzerland. Also A 340-600, A-320 blue belly were corporate models with a special red box. But Swissair went bankrupt and the models were sold to several hobby shops in Europe. For example the A 340-600 is available with the corporate box, here in Switzerland, while I saw the same model for sale in the standard box outside of Europe.
The next two Swissair models will be the A310 and A330, both with grey bellys and then the first Swiss Model. The A330 in the new livery.
