The one in my screenshot is the 'hard (6-3) wing' beta (notice the wing fences) - and that's the default scheme (Canadair Sabre Mk.4 XD799 'A', 92 Squadron, RAF Linton-on-Ouse, 1955).

No my job!

LOL,but the two USAf repaints it remains a mystery

**Anthin** · July 13th, 2014, 14:15

Is this a native FSX Sabre?
Tried to find it at Avsim but no luck.
I tried 'sf86ef.zip' But the request comes
up with nothing.

It looks like this paint was never released. I've searched for it at all
the big sites with no luck. I guess the only way to find out is to PM
Javis.

Can anyone give me a link to his profile.

This Sabre is an FS9-only release - I understand it can be ported to FSX, but with some issues.

It can be found on Avsim. Try searching that same filename in the FS2004 section and you'll find it.

Thanks for the reply. Found it and have got it working great in FSX.
Brilliant.
Anthin.

None were ever done - that I'm aware of, anyway - as it was never formally released.
I've never tried any other skins on it, so I don't know if the mapping is the same.

So where can I find this.

I picked it up at FlightSim.com, along with the Update that was noted in the File Description.

Any tips or Install issues I should know about?

FS9 on XPSP3, OLD rig (socket 478... need I say more?).

I tried some of my other texture sets on the hardwing model and found a couple slight mapping differences. The stretch on the aft fuselage and the gunsight radar are done differently. As far as I could tell the wings are the same (the fences may need painting). There is a new texture bitmap for the right side console in the vc, but it doesn't overwrite any existing textures.

Someone who knows a little about painting could probably whip something up by adapting the existing paint kit.

Ditto - keen to find that paint too!

I've been right through all the entries on both flightsim and avsim - and I can't find any trace of it.

I hope my previous post didn't confuse the issue... I was referring to the F-86 Base Package and its associated Update, not the USAF repaint.

Sorry about that...

**EMatheson** · July 16th, 2014, 08:22

That appears to be a hard-wing paint job that was never released. Javis might have it if you ask him nicely.

**Tom Burnside** · July 17th, 2014, 11:50

Anybody have a link to Javis profile.

**Lee Mumbower** · July 30th, 2014, 13:50

Im still digging my tires into runway on landing no matter how soft I land, I though I had it fixed but I guess I was wrong, can some one tell me something else to try? Lee
