[SEL] OT: F86Sabre

[FRM8198 at aol.com]

Rob,
In the late '50s, I worked for North American Aviation at  Fresno.  Our main 
effort was modifying F-86Ds into F-86Ls.  We  also did some work on F-86Ks.  
The K models were the hot rod of the F-86  series.
Bob Hoover really could put these planes through maneuvers that  many pilots 
thought impossible.  I watch him clover leaf one at an air  show.
