Photo Comment

One of six Fiat assembled F-86Ks acquired by Honduras in 1970. Originally supplied to West Germany and later sold to Venezuela, they arrived in Honduras in very poor condition and although four were eventually assembled, only two (FAH1100 and FAH1101) ever became operational, the first of these flying in December 1975. Seen here marked as FAH1000, this aircraft was originally FAH1102 and is displayed in the museum as such at time of upload.
