World Land Speed record

This one may not be a flyer, but it’s certainly an active survivor:

A group in Norway were restoring a TF-104G to fly, several years ago think it was an ex Canadian jet.

The Starfighters team were due to get a batch of 16 airframes from Italy, thats what a stateside newspaper had reported in May. Some for flying and some for spares (these were staying in Italy) i believe.

Thats all I can think of at the moment…

That would be this group then!

I Noticed in a Wal-Mart in the US, you can buy a pretty detailed 1:18th scale toy F104!
I was tempted!
