I believe our guys not affectionately named the F102 the "Lead Sled"... which pretty much says what there is to say about how its airworthiness was regarded by some experienced fighters.

If memory has served well, of all the aircraft I have been around, next to, worked on, seen fly... the Sled is one which would create a pucker factor if I had to actually pull back on that stick with the engine running.
