If I recall HiFlyer had earlier posted preview of the this F-104...

Now, this, indeed, looks like a sleek and quality add-on. AFS2 products seem to be maturing in this category...

BTW, I did note the funny comment on the Larrylynx page, "...spike on the nose is for hanging your helmet on..."...🙂...Now, I know, the Pitot could be at the (nose, wing, tail...etc.) depending on the aircraft..

Beautiful and crisp shots (aircraft+backdrop), here, Nils!

Nice pictures of a quality freeware addon that makes you realize some planes are too fast to bother with things like...... turning. 😲

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

Who made this add-on again?  I love the livery.  If you remember the Right Stuff, I love the scene near the end where Chuck Yeager finally makes it high enough in his F104 to view the stars.  Cost the Air Force an F104 but given the publicity he won the Air Force, the Air Force still had a cost leader in its ranks.  Live on Chuck!  He is almost 100--imagine that!
