Built in 1958 as an FJ-4B Fury BuNo 143575 and delivered to VA-192 "Golden Dragons" on board the USS Bon Homme Richards. The FJ-4 was the final reincarnation of the F-86 Sabre line. Acquired by Flight Systems in 1971 as N400FS. After 700 hours of test flying it was abandoned until 1991 when was bought and gradually restored for the war bird circuit where it currently flies in 2023 in US Navy markings.
