Four F-86K arrived from Venezuela for service with the Honduran air force in 1970, shortly after the 100 hour war. Two others remained stuck at Curacao for years. The F-86K initially were allocated serials 1000 and up, and were retired in 1980, only two of these survive today in Honduras. Ex 55-4904.
