Hello all, Health and time issues have limited the ability to update the site but I keep plugging away. Primarily there have been maintenance issues to deal with and I have been trying to make headway organizing the archives into something useful. I have been cataloging P-61 Black Widow pictures and adding them to the Forgotten Aviation section. I will also be trying to update more entries for the registry. I'm still working on researching the development of WIX III but that takes money and time.

I will continue to improve the site, 1 file at a time.


Warbird Registry:
North American F-86 Sabre/50-0653

Forgotten Aviation:
Northrop P-61 Black Widow - 32 images added

Hi Scott,
Found some more work for you in the F-86 registry. As you said, "one at a time."
This is an update on F-86F, 52-5116. You last show it under restoration in 2003.
It has been registered to F-86 SABREJET INC in Wellington FL. as N286CF since 2014
Here are a couple photos from May of 2022.

Northrop P-61B-1-NO Black Widow/42-39417

Check out my thread on this aircraft from years ago. I have a picture of the data plate among others.
