I know, I know that I am missing the following (4) Fighter Squadrons and (1) Air Test and Evaluation Squadron from the 1970s:

VF-14 "Tophatters"
VF-51 "Screaming Eagles"
VF-111 "Sundowners"
VF-114 "Aardvarks"

&

VX-4 "Evaluators"

There were only (16) Fighter Squadrons and (1) Air Test and Evaluation Squadron in the 1970s.

I know, you would figured that it would have been black, right?

Of Course, most everyone's favorite is the VF-84 "Jolly Rogers" scheme.

Apart from that, I would have to say that I like the VF-41 "Black Aces" and the VF-142 "Ghostriders" schemes as well.

BTW, the XPF-14 Skystriker Interceptor looks a lot like the VF-1 "WolfPack" scheme to me.
