The accident rate of the F-104 was rather high, especially in GAF service where it acquired the moniker 'Widowmaker'. Many of the problems could be overcome by better training of the pilots, understandable as they were flying a plane with almost no wing. Of the 158 examples built of the two-seat, training TF-104G version 104 were operated by the GAF. Fortunately one of these is now preserved at the Luftwaffenmuseum at Gatow.

This replica of the DR1 is seen in the colours of the Rad Baron, Baron von Richthofen, probably the most famous German pilot of WWI. The markings are the same as a similar replica displayed at Speyer. Only 320 of these aircraft were built as a response to the Sopwith Triplane and they were beset with problems due to high wing loading.
