...Starters-----How many externally heated components were there and what were they In taking your question as expressed.. ...there were no externally heated components on the Starters -- unless you counted a combustion start exhausting into a full fuel drain can; then things got hot in a hurry.

AH HA,remember some of those difficult questions when you were testing for one thing or another? And the answer was simple? Well, at several times during my career, I was involved in writing tests for career progression, NCO Prep schools, leadership courses, etc......The key word here was "externally"..........Any body come up with more than MOW? ?? COMON THINK!!!!!!! Starters was intended to kick off the thinking process

MArv HEY MArv-- It was called the CANUCK and was named after an earlier Canadian a/c- the JN-4 which was a BIPLANE trainer...... Made by AVRO as the Mk4A.......It was twinengined and ugly as all hell....They use to come into Loring and park in the ADC area, we use to,try and keep them out of sight...The Logo painted on them was "Canadien Armed Forces" . It was an all weather fighter- Canadian label, not mine ... BTB, do you know the "M" # given to the F-86, and were they all made in Canada?

SURNHELL There has to be some one out there that has had an unusual 106 experience, (Nessie and s"KAL"awag's Kittens not of the type preferred here), TDY experiences-on duty type only........If any of you are old enough to have been in on the start of the DUECE, even those experiences are worthy of note-- Like the "Wear it Out" program at Truax Field,Wisc.(leave it alone, sKALawag).....I have a lot of experiences on both a/c, but,it is not me I want see here. Hey, if you posted something a long time ago on the old forum, bring it up again, there are new people that haven't read them. And it might even pose a challange to a couple of deviates that frequent Pat's World.. And now-- a tip o me fine derby ta ye an a short snort

On the Canadian Aircraft, the Nickname was the Clunk, Made by AVRO Canada. Armament on the early Mk3 and the 4A was 8 50's in a belly tray and 29 2.75 FFAR's in each wing tip. don't know how many. The Mk 4B was different in that there were two options on the belly pod, 8 50's or FFAR's, don't know the number of 2.75 FFAR's in the belly pod.
The Mark 5 dumped the belly pod and had 52 FFAR's in each wing tip, just like the F-89D. It was teamed with ADC, and was an interceptor.
And if you look at it as a contrmporary of the F-89, it weren't ugly! At least you didn't have to wait for the sweeper trucks to finish clearinrg runway FOD before you could take off! This thread's been going on so long that only Jeff rankin Lowe would know if any were still flying, but it's 51/49 the answer is no.
