I'm glad you got the 191st FIS F-4 from the Michigan Air National Guard.  The unit used that black and yellow scheme for multiple aircraft up to the F-16 when they were dictated to use a subdued scheme and soon after absorbed with another unit after a mission change.  The scheme was used on their F-106s, T-33s and F-16As.

Well, it's black and red (two of the colours specified) but 414 (EW) Squadron had the all-black "Electric Voodoo" "EF-101" back in the 80s:



And as I'm on a Saab kick these days, there was a J35XS (DK-215) that the Ilmavoimat painted up for the retirement of the Draken from Finnish service:



and Flygvapnet F10 had an all-yellow Draken which Hasegawa kitted:



There are some more Flygvapnet shcemes which might fit. Just trying to find decent pics of the actual aircraft, not the models of them...

Poor planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on my part...
