EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage photograph, the sleek and powerful form of a United States Air Force North American F-100C Super Sabre jet fighter takes center stage. The specific aircraft depicted is 54-2110 (msn 217-371), assigned to the 476th Fighter-Day Squadron of the 479th Fighter-Day Wing, stationed at Palmdale, California, during the mid-1950s. The North American F-100C Super Sabre was a single-engine, supersonic interceptor and fighter aircraft, developed by North American Aviation for the United States Air Force. This particular aircraft, with its distinctive swept wings and tail design, was a formidable presence in the skies during the Cold War era. Unfortunately, the history of 54-2110 is marked by an incident that occurred on April 14, 1958. While on a training mission, the jet experienced an in-flight emergency near Boron, California. The skilled pilot was able to eject safely, avoiding any fatalities. Despite this setback, the F-100C Super Sabre continued to serve the United States Air Force with distinction for many years to come. This photograph, taken in 1956, captures the F-100C Super Sabre in its prime, showcasing the cutting-edge technology and design that made it an essential part of the United States Air Force's arsenal during the Cold War era.
