TF963 of 801NAS having taken the barrier on HMS Glory after having missed the wires. The third photo in the sequence I have uploaded. Date and location are approximate. TF963 was subsequently passed on to 1833NAS at RNAS Bramcote and allocated maintenance serial A2355 by 1955. Photographer not known. Photo obtained from former Fleet Air Arm pilot in 1971.

806 Sqn Seahawk FGA.6 after taking the wire on HMS Albion at sea in 1960 with the port undercarriage leg retracted. WV806 was sold as scrap from Belfast in February 1968. I have seen this incident logged elsewhere as 1st September 1959 but this does not tally with 806's embarkment on HMS Albion which was from February to December 1960. Location is probable but not confirmed. Photographer not known. Photo obtained from former Fleet Air Arm pilot in 1971.

This A-7A is loaded out with six live 1000 lb. Mk.83 bombs (three under each wing). This was a good load configuration for the A-7, as it was lower drag than having them mounted on multiple ejector racks (MERs). 152669 arrived at MASDC on 26 May 1977. It was used as a parts airframe for the Portuguese A-7P program. After that it was evidently sold surplus, and at last report was at the Tennessee Museum of Aviation in Sevierville, TN. awaiting restoration.

Loaded out with four live 500 lb. Mk.82 bombs (two under each wing). A well worn but reliable A-7A, 153152 was with VA-93 from 1973 through 24 April 1977. It arrived at MASDC on 1 June 1977, and was given a new life when it was converted to an A-7P for the Portuguese Air Force. It was lost in a mishap on 4 December 1989 near Vila Vocosa, Portugal.

This A-7A is loaded out with two live 2000 lb. Mk.84 bombs (one under each wing). VA-93 and VA-56, both aboard USS Midway, were the last two fleet A-7A squadrons (the Navy Reserve still had A-7As for a little while longer). On April 24th, three days after I took this slide, both squadrons flew off all the A-7As to NAS Cubi Point for return to the U.S. by ship. 153228 arrived at MASDC on 27 May 1977. It was later converted to an A-7P for the Portuguese AF with s/n 5517 (later 15517). Its flying days finally ended in 1994 and it was scrapped.
