The Century Series was the name given to the series of secondgeneration US Air Force fighters that took the USAF beyond the sound barrier and towards Mach 2. With the F100 Super Sabre, F101 Voodoo, F102 Delta Dagger, F104 Starfighter, F105 Thunderchief, F106 Delta Dart and F107A all on display at the @PimaAirSpaceMuseum in Tucson, Arizona, aircraft designer Joe Wilding shows us around the design of these early jet fighters.
