Preserved at PFW Aerospace. During World War I the Pfalz fighters were built here.

Joseph Stalin died in March 1953, one year before the first flight of the F-104, but he can still study this remarkable design from his pedestal in Zruč. This CF-104D got the tail of 104634. Morava OK-HXN is also seen.

With the F-104G still under development, the first Starfighters delivered to the Luftwaffe were thirty F-104F trainers, these having the new J79 engine but no radar or armament.

Too many planes are suspended from the ceiling in the Military Museum, but I don't mind this stunning display of the F-104, the 'Manned Missile' - in this case unmanned. The T-tail is almost as big as the tiny wing in this view.
