F-86 down in Hickory NC
"Jim Macklin" wrote in message news  wkxg.84103$ZW3.20817@dukeread04...Late 1948-49 technology, under-powered, heat limited. I remember the ANG F84F flown near my home, five miles from the airport. In the summer, they would struggle to get to 1,000 AGL 5 miles after take-off. The F86 wasn't much better. I'm going to guess it was engine related, failure, bird ingestion, or maybe hydraulics. This one had a larger engine. I think I remember something about a 6 model? -- Jim in NC
