This is Canadian aircraft was painted in USAF markings when it flew with the Pacific Military Air Museum in Oakland, California but by the time of the photo it was operated by Flight Systems as a drone. Withdrawn from use in 1983 and latter seen at the EAA Museum, Oshkosh.

An ex-RCAF Sabre 5 on the ramp at Mojave

A former Luftwaffe F-86 (delivered as BB+170 in the early seventies, and later on also carried D-9538) was sold on the civil market in 1977. It arrived at Duxford (UK) but was eventually sold to Flight Systems, Inc, Mojave (CA) in April 1979. It received registration N1039C, but that changed into N82FS in October 1981. The aircraft served the company for several years and was sold to N.V.L. CORP, Washington DC (MD) on 10 April 1998 and received registration N186JC. The Sabre was fully destroyed in a high speed impact on 19 June 1999, killing its pilot.

This Sabre 5 is the former RCAF 23231, taken on charge by them on 11 May 1954.

Former German Air Force Canadair Sabre 6, JC-240. Just after it's arrival at Teuge it was in basic USAF colours, not yet wearing any markings.

Italy received 179 Canadian-built Sabre 4s from 1956. The Lanceri Neri (Black Lancers) aerobatic team flew six of them. Preserved outside the main gate, this is a former RAF machine, XB814 and MM19668. Fake serial MM5321 is worn on the rear fuselage.

This was the final Sabre built by Canadair at Montreal before it ceased production. During its service with the Pakistan Air Force it achieved 6 kills during conflicts with India. Donated to the museum in 1996 and delivered inside a CAF Lockheed C-130. It was previously displayed with PAF markings. The museum was renamed the Royal Aviation Museum of Western Canada 19 December 2014 and closed its doors 22 October 2018. The historic TCA hangar and original terminal building were sadly demolished to make way for a new maintenance facility. The construction of a new museum building commenced 1 May 2020.

On display next to a Sherman tank in a small parking lot in Fourth Street. The maintenance guy had just started work and the other side was in shadow so I had to just capture it like this.

Aircraft in the colors of the Golden Hawks aerobatic display team, 1959-1963.

Golden Hawks livery and Centenary markings on the tail and a 'Discovery Air' logo on the fuselage.
