Yep! And I love my hometown Glenview colors (although it was wearing NAS Salem reserve markings in service back in '57).
BTW, I've tried several times to upload this shot to the Aerial Visuals Airframe Dossier and I keep getting a 500 server error...?

Looked 100% better in the civilian scheme.

When you buy it and own it then you can paint it back in the scheme you prefer.

I'd say the 1963 timeframe is pretty well on the mark. This is while painted white/ red and owned by Aero Enterprises of Midway-Dunlap in Indiana. I'm pretty certain the photo is shot at Midway as well.

And to Blackbirdfan, I concur.
