From 1974 until 1982 '818' operated with 334 Skvadron and spent some time as BDR-trainer at Kjevik at the Luftforsvarets Tekniske Skole Senter. The aircraft was scrapped in 2010 with the cockpit section coming to Gardermoen for display.
For many 104 enthusiasts it only takes seconds to bring back the sounds of this iconic aircraft in the ears, even in the cockpit of the engineless 104818.
