Interesting plane that Sabre in Yugo colours. There is a Dutch connection: in the early sixties the Yugoslavian Sabres were overhauled by Avio-Diepen at Papendrecht-the Netherlands. Aviolanda-Diepen was a Fokker subsidiary and also did work on the Fokker S-14 Machtrainer prototype for conversion into a laboratory aircraft for the Dutch Air-and Space laboratories NLR. Work on the S-14 was considerably delayed because the order on the Sabres had a higher priority!
