Livre F104

 

The Belgian F-104 pilots - the Silver Spurs - narrate their experiences with the mythic Starfighter, a high-class but sometimes treacherous aircraft.

A document in English of 240 pages and 250 pictures explaining how it was to fly the manned missile.

The book covers the genesis, the purchase of more than 1.350 F-104G for the four European Consortium partners, the operational employment in the Belgian Air Force and some accidents,

But what is unique, more than 35 pilots narrate their experiences on the manned missile, occurrences grifted in their memory for 40, 50 and even 60 years. This is a première.

The document is devoted to the 23 Silver Spurs who lost their life when flying the machine. They were victims of the Cold War while actively contributing to maintain peace in Western Europe.
