Crashed 17-nov-1970 at Aalborg Airbase, Denmark. The plane hit the ground only seconds after takeoff.

The pilot ejected safely, but the passenger  was killed.This was the first Norwegian Starfighter loss ,after

operating Starfighter since aug 1963.The pilot who ejected safely  was involved in the 10-feb-1971 accident

short time later.He flew Starfighter  FN-D and was killed on the spot.

Yep, I too had a look at the Vingtor CF-104 decals at Skala 2011, and they are still available - as are the F/TF-104G decals.  I have never seen pics of two-seaters carrying anything but droptanks under the wings if anything at all.
