Thanks Milt,

I'd forgotten about the Sabre. I heard that the aircraft was a handful on conversion. I've seen some old footage showing conversion onto CAC Sabres with the instructor flying chase.
I think it showed a few brief seconds of PIO, with a few encouraging words from the instructor!

Was there every any attempt to correct this deficiency in the Sabre? Or was it simply a tradeoff for better manoeuvre performance elsewhere in the envelope?

Cheers
