Cool video of a pilot friend performing a Lockheed F-104 Starfighter test flight in Florida. He's a former Italian military pilot...much respect. There's additional videos of him flying and giving instructions about the F-104 on his YT channel. As well as some good hearted adventures too.

A neat bit of history: an RCAF CF-104 Starfighter sporting a Red Ensign on its tail.

Luftwaffe 21+69 Lockheed Starfighter F-104G. This Messerschmitt-produced Starfighter is being kept in excellent condition by the apprentice shop of TaktLwGeschw 31 Boelcke in Nörvenich and is only very rarely viewable by the public. This photo was taken at the invite-only family and friends celebration of the squadron's 60th anniversary. #avgeek #aviation #luftwaffe #f104 #starfighter #military #planes #airforce #aircraft #photography (Instagram 15.09.2018)

A Lockheed F-104!
I was just chatting with a friend about the Vietnam War and how these pointy birds weren’t the designed and saw a lot of combat losses during the war. On takeoff, the afterburners would blowout left and right. In Europe, instead of flying high and fast like interceptors, they were flown like low-flying bomber.
The primitive avionics and fighter pilots themselves were so overburdened with information that both suffered from burnout and high turnover. Just an all around terrible plane to fly, and the only American-built fighter jet to be pulled from service over safety concerns.
I can think of no higher honour for an F-104 than being nothing more than a weathered sculpture in a public park. X3
