The F84F was the first single seat fighter I ever flew -and the idea of "no dual" was unusual -but after a comprehensive groundschool it was an easy conversion to the F84 from the T33 -and the absence of an instructor nattering at you was a welcome change.
I never had a chance to wring the aircraft out -but it flew beautifully -and I really enjoyed the cartridge start. All that black smoke let you know you were doing something significant!
Later while flying CF104s in Germany I found F84s as decoy targets at airports all over the continent -they had been replaced largely by F104s but were still serving on! I wish I could have borrowed one and taken it flying!
One of the saddest things in my life was seeing thousands of these great machines literally piled up three deep awaiting destruction at Davis Monthan.
Of course all pilots of my era are awaiting "bronzing"...

Would you have a 3 view line drawing of the F96A? It was the first swept wing modification of the F84. If you would have one, I would like to get or purchase a copy. I was also wondering if you could create a drawing of the F96A if it had been built in a two seat trainor version. Thank you. Jerauld Olmsted
