http://www.aero.fcu.edu.tw/index.html

On 23 October 2006, Monday afternoon, Mr Kelsay, the president of the Classic Aircraft Aviation Museum in Portland, Oregon, USA, will lecture at the university.

On 18 November 2006, Wednesday morning, a “Feng Chia University F-104 fighter donation to Classic Aircraft Aviation Museum contract signing ceremony” is scheduled at the university.

So, the Feng Chia University F-104 emigration to USA news is real.
