The F-100F is now a 47 year old single engine, 2 seat fighter trainer.
Weighing in at about 32,000 pounds with 45* swept wing with automatic
leading edge slats.  It was called Super Sabre and built to replace the
F-86F.  It's max weight was about 40,000 pounds with 10,000 pounds of
thrust.  With after burner ... about 16,000.
If a pilot entered a spin below 10,000 feet the spin recovery was simple
.... eject, because there was not enough altitude to break the spin and to
get the nose up to fly again.  In that respect the Lancair is very similar
to the
F-100.  We lovingly called the F-100 "lead sled" because it was so clean and
so heavy.

I flew the F-100 for 5 years and 1200 hours in the Air Force when the
airplane was new.  I was responsible for getting an entire squadron of 18
birds across the Atlantic three different times from the East coast to Adana
Turkey and back.  The earlier F-100's had no flaps and the final approach
speed was a scary 190 knots.  A drag chute helped to slow the landing
roll-out ..... if it didn't deploy you had the jet barrier (nylon straps
dragging huge chains) to stop the energy.  If I can find a photo I will scan
it.
