This is perhaps the most poorly researched set of F-106 decals I have ever seen. First off, four of the aircraft depicted ARE USEABLE as is: 59-0037, 58-0783, 59-0031, and 59-0061. However, and starting with the most obvious, the B-model, 59-0165 has the incorrect spelling of CENTER on the external tank markings, Folks, we don't spell it like that in the USA. Not sure if one can find replacements. Second, the tail markings for 57-2457 were obviously taken from a faded, color slide of that design. The arrow was actually a bright yellow. Next, the markings for the 87th FIS aircraft 59-0088 is not correct on two obvious points, The nose are "Jack the Gripper" was used during William Tell 1972, and only for a short time thereafter. The markings on the tail show the TAC insignia, but the 87th and all FISs were under the Aerospace Defense Command at the time. Also, the 87th had very specific markings for the external tanks during WT72, and can be seen in many publications. The ones on this sheet are incorrect. Lastly, on the 84th FIS aircraft 57-2497, the ADC insignia should be on the right side of the vertical stab. Possible to fix this one.
