The "Jolly Rogers" insignia, featuring the iconic skull and crossbones, has become one of the most recognized symbols in U.S. naval aviation, carried by several distinguished squadrons over the decades. The legacy began during World War II with VF-17, a fighter squadron established in 1943. VF-17 was the first squadron to adopt the "Jolly Rogers" insignia, flying the F4U Corsair in the Pacific Theater. Under the command of Lieutenant Commander Tom Blackburn, VF-17 became one of the most successful Navy squadrons of the war, earning a fearsome reputation for its combat effectiveness and distinctive markings.
After World War II, VF-17 was redesignated as VF-5B in 1946 and continued to carry the "Jolly Rogers" banner while flying the F6F Hellcat and later the F8F Bearcat. In 1948, VF-5B was redesignated as VF-61, and the squadron transitioned to jet aircraft, including the F9F Panther and F9F Cougar. VF-61 continued the "Jolly Rogers" tradition until it was disestablished in 1959, marking the end of the first era of the "Jolly Rogers" legacy. However, the spirit of the "Jolly Rogers" would soon find new life with another squadron.
In 1955, VF-84 adopted the "Jolly Rogers" insignia, becoming the second squadron to bear the name. VF-84 flew various aircraft, including the F-4 Phantom II and most famously, the F-14 Tomcat. VF-84's Tomcats, with their bold black tails and skull and crossbones, became emblematic of the Cold War era and featured prominently in naval operations and popular culture. After VF-84 was disestablished in 1995, the "Jolly Rogers" insignia and traditions were transferred to VFA-103, a squadron that continues to fly the banner today, now operating the F/A-18F Super Hornet. Through these transitions, the "Jolly Rogers" has remained a symbol of excellence and a lasting legacy in U.S. Navy aviation history.

Re: FD Aircraft 21
I haven't posted in like 3 years, but I am back with some airline liveries.
First up a Fairchild Metroliner operated by Mesaba Aviation for Northwest Airlines under the Airlink brand. They were replaced by the Saab 340B and were no longer in the fleet as of 1997. I was unable to find the current status of this aircraft
Next another Mesaba Aviation aircraft, this aircraft was aquired by Mesaba in 1992 and was sold off in 1997 when the Saab 340B's came online. The aircraft is reported to still be flying with Skyward Express, and airline in Kenya.
Last CRJ-200, operated by Pinnacle Airlines for Northwest. N8444F was acquired in 2000, and operated under the Northwest Airlink and later Delta Connection brand. In 2013 it was placed into storage, and reportedly remains so.

Re: FD Aircraft 21
Hi, guys! After several (many!) moons, I had finished the drawings (thanks to the guidelines given by Eswube) of the Peruvian and Chilean A-37Bs. Cheers.
