Description
Captured 4/4/09, at the semibeautiful Chino Planes of Fame Museum at the semibeautiful Chino Airport in semibeautiful Chino, California.
For pertinent details and information on this aircraft and its pilot, see my North American Aviation F-86 Sabre upload for April 8, 2009.
This is the second and last in a miniseries on this particular plane. Figured since you all liked the first upload of this gorgeous craft, that I would post some more shots of it in its gleaming spit and polish mode, using moderately different POVs.
Pragmatically, I seriously doubt it ever entered a war zone or combat all gussied up like this.
Thankx for stopping by, and have a serendipitous Saturday.

Remarkable preparation of this fine aircraft. This collage rivals you classic car presentations. Nice!

WONDERFUL!

more of this beautiful glittering plane, again with kudos for the clarity and shine you captured in dim lighting (as you described it in the previous version). And yeah, I can understand that this would never go into combat looking like this. it would be spotted miles away, glistening in the sun. Another exciting pastiche, in part because you capture so many different angles of the same shining bird; and for how well you controlled the many lights without letting them take over the shots. Fine montage once more, Harry, and a wonderful holiday to you & all you love.

Love this one too!

Shiny shiny shiny! Wonder how many mechanics went over it with soft cloths to polish it up that nicely? It's a beauty now, that's for certain! Great shots, Harry!

Happy to see another collage of this shiny plane. Excelent job Harry to highlight the "flashy" body.

I thought in the first collage, and here too, that I've never seen such a shiny plane! Pity the poor fellows who's job it is to keep this plane in such pristine condition! Great shots, Harry!

I really like these shots, this plane is just fantastic and about as shiny as it can possibly be. You caught it beautifully!!
