“What you gonna do when you get out of jail?…” part 336

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2021

Today, let’s rattle some sabres.

F-86 Sabres, to be precise.

“No Sweat!” is a nice little educational film: “…showing an under-the-weather F-86 pilot, who, through carelessness and preoccupation, turns a routine flight into a nightmare.” I think there’s probably some stuff in here that will also serve as useful reminders to general aviation pilots.

Bonus: “The Fighting 51st”, a documentary about the 5lst Fighter Interceptor Wing.

Bonus #2: Wanna see someone do aerobatics in a F-86? Here you go.
