Was The Canadair Sabre The Best Sabre?

Canada built over 1,800 Sabres under license from North American Aviation, becoming very expert in the type. Sufficiently so that later marks of Canadian Sabres were fitted with more powerful Orenda engines and other refinements. This video investigates the history of the Canadian Sabres and asks whether they were, in fact, the best of the breed. Sources: By far the best single volume on the Canadian Sabre is "The Canadair Sabre" by Milberry. Long out of print, it commands a high price on the used market but is well worth it Far less detailed, but also interesting for its pictures is "Aircam Aviation Series No. 20: Canadair Sabre Mk.1-6; Commonwealth Sabre Mk.30-32 In RCAF, RAAF, SAAF, Luftwaffe & Foreign Service" by Joos and Ward. It also has the longest title of any book in my collection! Otherwise sources are shared with my main Sabre video
