Lockheed F-104 Replica

[128MB]

I see an F-104 everyday while driving to work, one is parked outside on a taxilane of Kleine-Brogel airport in Belgium.

So I wanted to make one but im having trouble with the wings.

I want to make it as good looking as possible but that way it does not fly...

Strange you should post this thread as just in the last couple of days I was building a plane that started looking like a F104, so I tweaked it until it looked more like one.

The wings on mine are too short, but there's not much else you can do using stock parts - either too small or too big.

On take off you need to be careful not to over rotate to avoid banging the tail on the runway, and as it doesn't glide too well, you need to come in with about 1/3 throttle until over the threshold, and it lands quite fast. Other than that it flies reasonably well.
