Photo Comment

This Sabre was delivered in 1955 as an F-86D but along with almost a thousand others, was modified to F-86L with redesigned wing and new electronics in 1957. Retired to MASDC in 1966 and now shown in the colours of the 354th FIS, McGhee Tyson Airport, TN although it didn't serve that unit.
