 Complementing
the book on Luftwaffe JaboG F-104s is AirDOC Modern Combat Aircraft
Special Series Number 4.
Bilband Pictorial “German
Starfighters” is, as one would expect, a compilation of photographs of
Luftwaffe Starfighters of all units from the 1960s onwards.
Over 64 pages Wilfried Zetsche
provides close to 130 large full colour photographs each filling half a
page. Whilst no body text as such is included, each photograph is
accompanied by a bi-lingual caption.
Zetsche has organised this book
by unit, with each section commencing with Unit badge artwork. Both line
F-104s and the many special schemes that became prevalent in the late
1980s are documented.
Also included are many photos of
Marine F-104s from MFG1 and 2. If a modeller wanted no other reference
for inspiration when building a Luftwaffe F-104, then this would have to
be it.
This is a
great reference book and an excellent complement to the other AirDOC
volumes on the Luftwaffe and F-104.
Highly Recommended.
