The Vikings Legend by Robert Tomlin.

The Lockheed F-104 Starfighter was undoubtedly one of the most remarkable aircraft of the famous Century Series of American jet fighters. Sold to so many Air Forces around the world, it featured strongly in the inventories of most European countries but none more so than West Germany. A difficult learning curve gave the aircraft a bad reputation but once mastered it proved a formidable interceptor. The ultimate proof that the machine had been tamed was given from 1983 to 1986 by the German Navy Display Team The Vikings who thrilled crowds throughout Europe by demonstrating the surprising agility of the Starfighter in spectacular fashion. This picture commemorated their achievements and gives The Vikings their rightful place in the history of Aeorbatic Display Teams.
