It could be the airbrake, which has been deployed to allow the A-7 to formate with the photo aircraft. The airbrakes on F-8s always seem to droop when the aircraft is parked, but the airbrake on A-7s does not, so it is rarely seen. I also get the idea that the A-7 airbrake unfolds on deployment, so that it is bigger than the housing. -- Enzo I wear the cheese. It does not wear me. |
