REQ preserved F-104G Pferdsfeld 1994

Post by Stephan Lodewijks »

In my log I have an unread F-104G preserved at Pferdsfeld on 5MAY1994. Also noted that day was G91 99+09, but I'm not sure if these two were seen in each other's proximity or somewhere far apart on the base. The F-104 was spotted from outside the fence somewhere.

My memory of 1994 is too faded to remember exactly where at Pferdsfeld I saw it. So, anyone a clue which F-104 this was? :-)

Thanks in advance.

Unmarked 25+02 was the only F-104 present during a closing event at ETSP on October 1st, 1994.

I was there at that open day too. I didn't realise it was the same F-104, since I had marked it as 'instructional airframe' instead of 'preserved'. :-)

Thanks for the clear-up!

Visited Pferdsfeld only twice, first time August 19th 1993 (TUAF F-4E), second May 5th 1994 (AMI G-91Y) and did notice the unmarked (R)F-104 and CL13 'JC+103', anyone more info regarding this one?

Have somewhere in my "Grey cells" that this was the JC-102 who moved to Laage. Or was this one at the barracks of JBG 35?

I'm not sure where it was located at that time. In my log it says Pferdsfeld only...
