The newly-freeware F-104 from SimSkunkWorks, available for FS9 and FSX (native format)  8-)







Fantastic plane, with a very nice VC, excellent flight model and great sounds

Great shots....thanks for the HU 8-)

Fell in love with this craft ever since the movie "The Right Stuff" came out! Great Pics!!!

I fell in love when one was featured in the opening teaser of the Star Trek Episode  entitled "Tomorrow is Yesterday." It was the interceptor sent up to investigate the Enterprise which had been thrown back in time to the 1960's

Can we possibly get a link to this beautiful aircraft? 

one of my all time favorites...have the cs version...have to check this one out....

Great set Stephane, especially the last one.

is this version 2?..for fsx?..

Thanks for the kind comments, gentlemen

This plane is available in three versions:
- one FS9 version
- two native FSX SP2 versions (self shadows, no transparency issues, canopy showing in front of clouds and autogen perfectly, etc...). Those are version 2.6 as well as ASA version 1.0.

You can find them only on SimSkunkWorks official site, you'll simply need to register to the site (it's free of course): http://www.vaafse.org/simskunkhome/index.php

The next version (version 3.0 I guess ?) will be FSX only, and it will be payware. The old versions are now freeware.

EDIT: when flying this plane, if you start hearing mad chickens, that means you have lost control and provoqued an unrecoverable situation that would force, in real life, the pilot to eject. They said that since the ejection process was not modelled in this plane, the gauge programmer created this funny chicken panic alarm to give a funny notice about a dramatic event
