f84 across the Atlantic

I remember a RDAF pilot comparish the F84 and the Hawker Hunter with the words: The Hunter flew like it looked: Slick like a hot knife through butter, where piloting the F84 was like sitting atop a haystack!
Poor pilot who had to fly the non-stop Atlantic crossing: He might have been exhausted :-o
