Posted: Tue Jul 13, 2010 12:32 amNice pics, Marty! I think the F-86 is the American "Hawker Hunter". Just has that "classic" look to it. I'd have loved to have seen one.

My thoughts as well Adam, Ive often thought how they would go up against each other....the f-86 would have a speed advantage, but it would be interesting.
Thanks for looking

It probably would of still been flying now but for an accident they don't land to well with the undercarriage still up
