EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sleek lines and powerful presence of a North American F-100C Super Sabre jet fighter from the District of Columbia Air National Guard, specifically aircraft number 54-1760 (msn 217-19), as it roars across the tarmac at Nellis Air Force Base during the early 1960s. The F-100C Super Sabre, a variant of the renowned North American F-100 series, was a versatile and formidable aircraft that served with distinction in the United States Air Force and various state air national guards. The image shows the jet in its distinctive camouflage paint scheme, with the District of Columbia Air National Guard insignia proudly emblazoned on the fuselage. The aircraft's wings are angled slightly upwards, creating a dynamic sense of movement and energy. The exhaust from the jet's engines trails behind it, adding to the sense of power and speed. Sadly, this particular F-100C, retired from service on December 30, 1971, and registered as FE147, is no longer in flight. It was eventually retired to the Military Aircraft Storage and Disposition Center (MASDC), marking the end of an era for this iconic aircraft. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the F-100C's storied history and the thrill of the jet age.
