Re: PAF F-104
Nice. About the F-104 it is said they are designed more like a rocket than an airplane. They are hard to land bcuz they arrive at great speeds, not very agile bcuz of short wings. However it did have an impressive climb rate.
4 engines 4 long-haul

The PAF 104 Starfighter was nicknamed 'Badmash' (an Urdu word roughly meaning 'Mugger' in English)
Here's nice air-to-air video footage of a PAF 104 Starfighter, also note line-up of F-86 Sabres and F-104 Starfighters on ground.
