F-86F Boeing Chase Plane

This is a request by Alberto, one of the Boeing F-86F chase planes. This F-86 was Boeing's chase plane until 1974. She should fit nicely in the Seattle area at the Boeing plant.

I have this one essentially finished but have been undecided about the color. In the picture above, which I have, the color is orange. I even labeled it orange in the paint kit. Other pictures show a much darker color. What you say for the color? I can make the change fairly easily.
 
I'd say the paint is too dark, but I'm colorblind.
I'm also not convinced you used the right font for the registration. Other than that, very nice paint!
 
Thanks Jan, I will work on the font. I also feel the color is to dark but took it from another picture from several views. I anyone has the number sequence Boeing used for this color I would appreciate it.
 
those round sixes look a lot like the RCN_80_ATH font, maybe you can use that?

I get about RGB 200-70-60 for that color?
 
Thanks Jan, I have that font. The color should be no problem now that I have the numbers. Much appreciated. Should have a another preview later.

I got a lot of input that led to several texture updates. Thanks to ollifreund and fleurdelys for providing me with photos and background info.
I now have 2 German liveries - the JB 244 and JB 242. They are quite similar as they belonged to the same unit.

After being away for the last month, I'm back at painting Sabres. Right now it has evolved into a trio of 336 Sqn Foxtrots.

Do you see any big mistakes Dag?
