Default Need help finding a full scale jet for Docs

Looking for info on where the Frank Borman F-86, which was bought by Ed Shipley, which I heard was bought by someone else but can't find info on it. Does anyone here know where they hangered this bird?

The last info I found was that it was at a museum in California but it was moved about 3 years ago.

I can't find any info on where it is after several hours on the net.

Yep that's the one. I called the museum and they said it was there about 3 years ago but isn't any longer.

This is weird.. I could be wrong but seems that the same aircraft has two N-numbers? This are the last pictures of this sabre in FB´s scheme, and presumably the new scheme.

I believe Michael Dorn, Lt Worf on Star Trek The Next Gen., owns that F-86. I saw it apart for its annual inspection like those photos in the hangar at Chino Planes of Fame. That was about 3 years ago now. I could dig up some photos I took if you need them.

Yep he used to own it. The owners were Frank Borman, Michael Dorn and Ed Shipley. Now the outfit that runs the Horsemen owns it in Houston and it has been re-themed.
