EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the United States Air Force (USAF) North American NT-39A-1-NA Sabreliner 60-3478 (msn 265-6) of the Air Force Materiel Command is seen gracefully resting at Edwards Air Force Base, circa 2000. The Sabreliner, a versatile aircraft with a rich history, is a product of the North American Aviation company, which was later acquired by Canadair. Originally designed as a business jet, this particular Sabreliner served in the military, specifically with the US Air Force and the Canadian Armed Forces. The NT-39A-1-NA Sabreliner is a variant of the CT-133 Silver Star, a trainer aircraft used by the Royal Canadian Air Force and the United States Air Force. This aircraft, with its distinctive silver star insignia, is a testament to its military heritage. The Sabreliner, with its sleek design and impressive performance capabilities, has been a staple in aviation and aeronautical circles since its introduction in the late 1950s. This photograph captures the essence of the Sabreliner's enduring legacy in military aviation. With its wings spread wide and the sun casting a golden glow on its silver surface, the aircraft appears poised for takeoff, ready to embark on its next mission. The US Air Force's commitment to maintaining and updating its fleet is evident in the pristine condition of this Sabreliner, a testament to the importance of transportation and logistics in military operations. The Sabreliner's Canadian roots are also evident in the registration number, 133572, which is reminiscent of its earlier life as a CL-30 aircraft in the Canadian Forces inventory. This photograph is a reminder of the rich history and international cooperation that defines military aviation, as well as the enduring appeal of the Sabreliner as a symbol of innovation and performance.
