One of 476 C-model Super Sabres built. This one was formerly 54-2091 with the USAF, after being retired from US service she was suplied to the Turkish Air Force in whose faded markings she was photographed. She was one of three ex-Turkish Super Sabres obtained by Tracor Flight Systems, and flown to Mojave in July 1989. They were intended for conversion to QF-100C status for use as full scale aerial targets but for some furtunate reason this didn't happen and they remained in outside storage at Mojave. Al Hansen obtained N2011M in August 1994 and restored her to airworthy condition wearing her original USAF markings.
