Flight Systems bought nine SAAF Sabres for conversion to drones. However, only one was converted to QF-86 standard. This 352 was one of the eight not converted and has been flying the air show circuit as N186FS and NX1F. This airframe holds the distinction of being the first aircraft to break the sound barrier over South Africa. On 21 September 1956 Captain J Inglesby of 1 Sqd took 352 into a supersonic dive over AFB Waterkloof.

Retired from operational flying in September 1995, shortly after this shot was taken. After a period of storage at Waterkloof it was restored to flight in 1999 for the SAAF Historic Flight becoming ZU-DMD and wearing the famous 'Skydancer' colours of the South African Flag. Problems with spare parts and funding have long since grounded the aircraft but it remains in storage at Hoedspruit.

Test flown as G-2-12 4 February 1966 and delivered to the SAAF's 24 Squadron 17 October 1966 where it served until retired and transferred to the National Museum of Military History 10 May 1992. Between 1987 and 1989 this airframe underwent a major overhaul said to have cost 13 million Rand at the time. There are speculations that this was a modification to make the aircraft capable of delivering South Africa's nuclear weapons. However, the nuclear programme was shelved and the weapons destroyed.

Test flown as G-2-12 4 February 1966 and delivered to the SAAF's 24 Squadron 17 October 1966 where it served until retired and transferred to the National Museum of Military History 10 May 1992. Between 1987 and 1989 this airframe underwent a major overhaul said to have cost 13 million Rand at the time. There are speculations that this was a modification to make the aircraft capable of delivering South Africa's nuclear weapons. However, the nuclear programme was shelved and the weapons destroyed.

The SAAF's 7 Sqd was established on 1 April 1939 as an active Citizen Force unit, but remained dormant and disbanded later that year. Re-stablished as a fighter squadron 12 January 1942 flying Curtiss Mohawks. The squadron fought in East and North Africa and took part in the invasion of Italy before returning to South Africa and Ysterplaat remaining in the Cape until finally disbanded 31 December 1994. Here is a line up of the squadrons Harvards at AFB Ysterplaat. 7458 was delivered in 1943 and served with the SAAF until sold in the USA as N7458S in 1997. Photographer unknown
