Here's the last installment of CF-104 pictures. A little history on this A/C. Here's the next installment. One more to go after this. After you get all the pictures you might want to organize them a bit. I intended for the Cockpit/inst. panel/console/canopy shots to be one group, the upper airframe shots to be another and the lower airframe/landing gear to be a third. Marc. '783 is currently the only genuine Canadair built CF-104 on display in Canada. It currently resides at the Atlantic Canada Aviation Museum located by the Halifax International airport, in Nova Scotia. The origins of this acquisition go back to 1987 at CFB Mountainview were several '104s were being held in various states of disassembly. '783 was the best of these and after much negotiations was finally acquired. She was delivered in 1989 and after much labour was unveiled in Oct of that year. She wears the last camouflage scheme applied to the CF-104, being dark green/ extra dark sea grey upper surfaces and medium sea grey lower surfaces. She does not have the fore and aft RWR fairings installed or both under nose blade aerials. Enjoy the Pictures!
