I used to think the F86 looked goofy not that long ago. Now It's a favorite of mine. Funny how our perceptions change like that. You did an awesome job. Oh and thanks for the documentary link as well! God bless 😁

I have a friend who flew F-86, F-100, F-105 (Vietnam) and F-111. He always said the F-86 was his favorite of all of them to fly. It had the most balanced controls that were just perfect.

Gorgeous aircraft! Count myself lucky to have seen the example that was based here in the UK fly on several occasions, including in a tail chase with a MiG15. As always enjoyed your build and video. Could I respectfully point out that referring to a kit from 1998 as 'very old' doesn't do my aged ego much good! My first model was built in 1968!!😆

Good video!! I have that same model kit of the F-86. Bought mine in early 2000s at a hobby shop along with a Tamiya MIG-15. Wanted the MIG to be in North Korean markings and searched far and wide before was able to find an aftermarket decal set for it. Wish Tamiya would come out with a kit of the F-86 - that would be awesome!!

Thanks. Since the kit is over 20 years old, the canopy was a little dull. I hipped it in Future Floor Wax to restore it. I didn't mention it on my video because I didn't think my audience cares about these things.

That's a very nice Sabre you've got there! Academy did re-release this kit about 10 or so years ago? It's got new decals for a Lt Jim Thompson's F-86F, "The Huff" with a very colourful Dragon nose art. I just ordered that kit online, so we'll see how that goes...Academy also did scale this model kit down to 1/72 scale, and those 1/72 Sabre kits should be fairly common.

Well thought out with the weights! ( had to do similar with the 1/16 Tamiya Tiger 1 and foam lined the rommel box and filled it with lead shot ) Great to see you do these kits, sir. Completely relatable and encouraging to modelers of all skill ranges!

Nice build. My best friend's dad flew in the RCAF, out of Baden Baden, in the 50's. He flew F-86's but the Canadair version. Bigger engines, and faster. He said at that time, they could sign the jets out for the weekend, and fly essentially anywhere in Europe to get air time hours. He was in his early 20's. He went on to fly the Widow Maker and retired as a Colonel. He has great stories.

Beautiful model and the look inside the cockpit of a real F86 was a nice touch. Very interesting indeed! The F86 is really a fascinating subject, so many countries flew it. In fact, West Germany used them too, but we had the variant built in Canada at the time. It is pretty much identical though. I built it some years ago, using the Revell/Hasegawa kit. It was a bit of a pig, i think the Academy kit is probably better!
