Corgi Aviation Archive Legends Series US35807 F-86 Sabre Diecast Model USAF 336th FIS, 4th FIW, "Paul's MiG Killer", Joseph Fields, Kimpo, South Korea, 1952 1:72 Scale     Length     Width North American F-86 Sabre     6.75"     6.25" Joe Fields' F-86 wore perhaps the largest shark's mouth seen on a Sabre during the Korean War. Sharks' mouths had been popular on F-80s and F-51s early in the war, but were removed in deference to local sensibilities, with a fear that pilots of aircraft which crash-landed wearing such devilish markings might receive an unfriendly reception. This aircraft survived the war and later served with the 123rd FIS, based at Portland International Airport, Oregon.
