Photographer's remark
(21.11.2007, 01:49 CET)
Nicknamed "The Last Gunfighter" - the Crusader was a trully remarkable aircraft. For landings and take off the lift was increased by increasing the angle of attack by raising the entire wing surface ( as shown). A carrier based aircraft by trade - this improved its handling in the difficult world, of ship operations.
