Another highlight of IAT93 (for me at least), was this TF-104 of the Turkish Air Force, photographed arriving at Fairford from her home-base at Diyarbakir. She was formerly 2703 with the West German Air Force. 181 Filo 'Pars' (Panther Squadron) operated the F-104 from 1985 until 1995. They are now equipped with the F-16C/D block 40.
