thread_title: Sabreliner as test bed

message: I have corrected the reference to the Sabreliner's wing geometry - the 'liner has a 35 degree sweep, and its wing is modeled on the F-86K 'long wing' Sabre (Air Enthusiast, 1972), and the same holds true for the tailplanes. The F-100 has a 65 degree sweep, and a thinner profile. Please discuss.

replies: text: One wonders if there is any credible reference, based on company records for instance, that states that the Sabreliner got its name because of, to quote this article, the "similarity of the wing and tail" to the F-86. One would more likely suspect that it was just a marketing or PR ploy to develop a brand association - Sabre, Super Sabre, Sabreliner, etc. - rather than a reasoned argument based on the borrowed engineering of the wing structure, etc. Jmdeur (talk) 20:26, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: My thoughts exactly. With the public love affair with the Sabre and Super Sabre, NA would likely have called it "Sabreliner" to make sure everyone drew the connection and realized who built the thing. I don't think that would be the first time. I suspect the fact that the wing and tail were visually similar was just a handy excuse to toss to the press. Heck, it's possible that they decided to use a visually similar wing and tail specifically to make sure it "looked like a NA aircraft". It is funny how many design cues were repeated between the P-51 and the F-86, -86D and then the F-100. Perhaps it was simply because they thought that was what worked best, but MiG has used their distinctive "MiG Tail" on every jet they've designed for decades (and a similar one before that), and I've never heard that it was because they actually thought that it worked better than other shapes, but rather, it worked as well and was good PR. Anyway...
