Canadair CL-13 (F-86E)
Sabre Mk. 2 19144
Nice aerial shot of three early
Canadair Sabres, powered by the J47-GE-13 engine. Later Marks
would employ the Canadian built Avro Canada Orenda engine of 6,355 lbs
of thrust. Canadair
built a total of
1,815 of all marks of this, arguably the best, all around fighter of
the early Cold War
years. Some 300 Canadian built
F-86s were supplied to the
Luftwaffe in the 1950s. CAHS
Historian Will Chabun advises that the 'AM' code letters on the
fuselage and the absence of camou-
flage indicate that 19144 was used by No. 410 Squadron in the early
1950s.
