Table 1.2 list countries that the F-86 was exported to but Canada is missing, even though other countries are listed as operating CL-13's

 

Australia could probably be listed as another export country, with the C-26/27. Although you could argue it was a completely different airframe.

 

I mean these are listed in the text, but just seem to be omitted from the table

Just my suggestions for the intro. Red is stuff I removed. Blue is stuff I added. Feel free to take all or none of my suggestions.:)

Thank you very much. Please check updated document in first post.

 

If you want, please keep your suggestions coming. As far as I know, mostly non-native English speakers have been involved in creating the document, so feedback like yours is extremely valuable and welcome.

Looks great!

 

Would it be possible to get a version of this that uses primarily feet/nautical miles/knots/lbm/lbf as they are the units in the F-86 instruments?

I mostly fly the F-18, and mostly as a flight sim rather than a combat sim.

My suggestions for chapter 1.3. I noticed in some chapters, imperial units are used while metric units are used in others. Since F-86 is American, maybe imperial units should be used but I'd say consistency is more important (all imperial or all metric). Just a thought.

Thank you - please review updated document.

 

In 1952, the manufacturing facility in Inglewood (California) started the assembly of the F-86F-35 (NA-202(191)). A total of 157 (263) airframes of this modification were built.

I will ask, but here's how I understand it:

 

907x NA-191 (F-86F-30 and −35 blocks, 263 F-86F-35)

157x NA-202 (F-86F-35 block)

 

(I could not quickly locate a source for the number 263, however. Maybe someone else can?)
