Hi all,
The above image is of a scene from the 1957 John Wayne movie Jet Pilot, which depicts what is supposed to be the F-89 Scorpion prototype (XF-89) in the background.
The problem being, the original XF-89 (s/n 46-678) was destroyed in a fatal crash in early 1950, 7 years before the movie came out.
Does anyone on this site know the identity of the a/c used to represent the XF-89 in the movie? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
