Has anybody out there had experience removing a wing from the fuselage of an F-86D? Either info on the procedure or a copy of the manual would be helpful for a friend of mine.
Thanks.
Jerry

I wish I could be of some "practical" help with your question but my wrenching experience on the 86 is a bit limited. I'm sure Rich Palmer or one of the guys doing Sabre restoration will come on board and possibly have a bit more useful information for you :-))

Best

DH

Do you want to remove the fuselage from the wing?
Or seperate the wings from the center section, that the
fuselage mounts to?
If the D model is like the F model the guy you need to contact
is "Sabremech".
I know that the D model is the Sabredog with a bigger engine
and fuselage but the wing configuration might be the same as
other models.
