Hmmm. According to the USAF aircraft database, F-106A 56-0467 was last
assigned to the 329th FIS at George AFB, Ca and was destroyed in a class
A accident on 14 August 1961. The aircraft on display at USAFA is
58-0761. 0467 seems to have flown in squadron service for quite awhile
after making its speed run - not bad for an aircraft that's rumored to
have had its structure damaged.


Mach 2.3 was normal operating speed in the squadron I worked for. Our
people believed the F-106 was aerodynamicly limited to that speed.


Tarver, you are brown-eyed. If you really were in the 194th you'll know
exactly what that means.


I was at the 144th FIW.

My eyes are hazel.

You have verified my assertion.

I am sorry you don't like the facts, Vygg.

Where did you work F-106s?

Or are you full of ****?

Ha! Talk about irony, Splappy.

Nice cut job you did there to try and change the context.

Great Tarverisms #1

The Air Speed Indicator (ASI) shows

You made that up, didn't you?

The IAS indicator says IAS, not ASI.

Why do you come here pretending to know something
when you don't even know the words?

That is just another old wife's tail from SC Shafer believed at ram.

There is no problem with my accuracy.

JT, the question we seem to be having revolves around your words "normal
operating speed".

No one doubts the F-106 at 2+Mach top speed. Exact cites vary slightly.

But that speed as "normal"? YGBSM

Hey, I am house bound most of the time. I could use the vacation. 'sides the
boy would chicken out if I showed.

As for what I'd rather be doing I'd love to find a B-9 and rebuild it.

My comment as to mach 2.3 being normal operating speed goes to the assertion
that the airplane would have a problem with going that fast. Taking an
F-106 to mach 2.3 does not damage the airplane.

Normal, as in probably every F-106 saw that speed somethime in it's
lifetime.

That's an interesting definition of the word "normal".

The "normal" operating speed of my old minivan is 105, since it did that
once in it's lifetime.

If your F-105 is capable of doing something inside its flight envelope, it
is normal operation. You have to remember that I have been harrassed here
for years over claiming our F-106s were capable of mach 2.3 without damaging
the airplane.

An example of an abnormal operation is the cobra manouver, as the flight
controls are altered from normal operation.
