Summary

Description
English: A U.S. Navy Ling-Temco-Vought A-7E-8-CV Corsair II (BuNo 157581) of Attack Squadron 12 (VA-12) "Flying Ubangis" in flight, circa in 1979. VA-12 was assigned to Carrier Air Wing 7 (CVW-7) aboard the aircraft carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower (CVN-69) for a deployment to the Mediterreanean Sea from 16 January to 13 July 1979.
Note: The date given (16 April 1987) has to be incorrect, as VA-12 was disestablished on 1 October 1986. Due to the paint scheme the photo was taken in the 1970s. The pilot (LCDR Rick Brydges), mentioned below the canopy, was assigned to VA-12 in 1979.
