EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases Canadair CF-86 CL-13A Sabre Mk. 5 23257, a legendary aircraft in the annals of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). Built in 1954 as msn 1047, this Sabre Mk. 5 served the RCAF with distinction for several decades before retiring and finding a new home at the National Air Force Museum of Canada located at CFB Trenton/ON (YTR), circa 1990. The Canadair CF-86 Sabre, a variant of the iconic North American Sabre, was a versatile and powerful jet fighter that saw extensive use by the RCAF during the Cold War era. This particular Sabre, adorned in the vibrant colours of the Golden Hawks RCAF aerobatic team, adds an extra layer of intrigue and excitement to the image. The Golden Hawks, an elite aerobatic team, represented the RCAF in various air shows and demonstrations, showcasing the skill and precision of the Canadian military aviators. The team's distinctive markings, featuring a golden hawk emblem on the tail, are a testament to their exceptional flying abilities and the pride they took in representing their country. The Canadair CF-86 Sabre Mk. 5 23257, with its sleek lines, powerful engines, and agile maneuvers, was a sight to behold in the skies. This photograph captures a moment in time when the Sabre, in its Golden Hawks livery, stood proudly on the tarmac at the National Air Force Museum of Canada, a testament to the rich history of Canadian military aviation.
