The F-100A was notorious for difficult handling with a tendency to go into a flat spin forcing the pilot to eject. Even then there was a possibility of the aircraft striking the pilot. Another problem was a tendency for the J-57 engines to flame out causing several crashes. The F-100A finally became operational with the USAF in September 1955 but in 1958 the accident prone F-100A began a phase out that was completed in 1961. By this time 47 of the 203 F-100As were lost in accidents. The RoCAF (Republic of China Air Force) on Taiwan was the only air force other than the USAF to use the F-100As. 15 F-100As arrived in 1959 followed by 65 in 1960. Another 38 former ANG aircraft followed bringing the number of F-100As to 118. The RoCAF ended up with over 50% of all F-100As produced. Patterned after the USAF the RoCAF is organized into Wing/Group/Squadron. The 455th TFW, 4th Fighter Group was comprised of the 14th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd Fighter Squadrons based at Chiavi AB.
