I am also a fan of F-8 Crusaders, I was an ordnanceman with a VMF unit for a while in the '60s, much cleaner to work on than the old Sea Furies. They had to cycle that adjustable wing occasionally while taxi-ing around, with the pilot buttoned up, looked like some kind of primordial shark. My hearing is a bit impaired from too much time in the arming area, where they would take off from.
