In the 60s, a Hawaiian Air National Guard F-86 pilot (the famous “HANG Man”) Would meet all the hot USN and USAF pilots enroute to SEA in their F-4s at 30,000 over Mana Loa.
In his old Sabre, the HANG Man never lost, and never took more than 55 seconds to get a gun kill on the kids.
One time, 4 squids in Phantoms tried him on, at once. He killed 3 in less than two minutes and the trailer called Bingo fuel!
Now in a standoff fight the T-33 would have been toast, but, in close it must have really been a “scooter” to the big old F-4.
