In reality this is 49-1067 but is on display at the National Museum of the USAF in the markings of the plane flown by Lt. Col. Bruce Hinton of the 4th FG. On 17th December 1950 he became the first F-86 pilot to shoot down a MiG. This photo is copyright © Alastair T. Gardiner, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
