Off topic: F-104s

[V1670]

Well....2016 is in the books and 'tis the season for general discussion. Watching "The Right Stiff": good god, I LOVE F-104s. I know the plane had limited capabilities, but geeez......what a looker! Kelly Johnson and Ed "Big Daddy" Roth had one thing is common of this design: small airframe with a monster engine= GO FAST! And it sure is easy on the eyes too.

Have a good quiet season everybody........looking forward to 2017.

This looks like a good place to drag this picture out for.
