Pilot loses his life and you want to talk about cool sites with paper models?
Words fail me.

Sorry for the mix up!
The initial message stated a F-104 but it does appear to be a L-39.
Still a great shame no matter what the type is.

It is a dangerous business, moresoever in jets.

Here is the link to Starfighters. Cool site. They even have a paper model of a 104 you can download and build.

“HEY GUYS
it was a L-39 piloted by Eilon Krugman-Kadi
failed to pull out of a loop

glen”

(From the “Yaahoo” F-104 site.)

Very sorry about the loss, but who was the moron that blamed it on the F-104 in the first place :confused: 😡

That is from our local 104 group! Any details? Who was flying?

They were due to be at the MacDill show with all three birds at the end of the month!:(

Condoleces and prayers to the team and families.
