Just Enough Room For A J79

View of the engine bay of Canadair CF-104 Starfighter. The aircraft was powered by a J79 turbojet, designed by General Electric and produced under license by Orenda.

 

I believe that that most of this Canadair CF-104 Starfighter was operated as 104701 by the Canadian Forces / Royal Canadian Air Force. If it is 104701, it was originally procured as 12701.
