Classy shot of an awesome jet.

There's something about the F-104 that no other plane really has. Just my opinion.

Is that a cable attached to it? If so... why? (do you know?)

my guess would be engine test and that is the hold down.

That would be my guess as well. Dark environment = greater exposure time. No motion blur despite the engine being at full burner tells me that this thing was stationary. Plus, the pixels...or something.

One of the coolest fighter jets of all time. It's so sci-fi looking and I love it.

So awesome. Even the name is futuristic.

F-104Gs had arresting hooks in case of emergency landings.

Yup. Check the wheels. Standing still.
