just on display, or did they manage to get it airworthy? It's been there over a decade and they said they wanted to get it airworthy, but I never heard any updates on the project since then.

Starfighters space has seven of them, and they use them to launch suborbital payloads

They were trying to buy something like a dozen phantoms from Korea for the same purpose. I havent been able to get any update on that acquisition though. I really really hope it goes through

I know they do, but I was wondering specifically about the ones that the Hillsboro organization has, since they're local to me.

Sorry, I misunderstood!

That thing FINALLY resurfaced. I saw articles about that ROCAF F-104 being transferred ages ago, glad to see it still exists. Looks like one of the ROCAF F-5s is also there too.

Learjet looking appropriately sheepish in the presence of such a beast.
