Wow, ABS! Who knew the Mustang had anti-lock brakes! :lol:

In that one picture of Jim "jumping" out of the cockpit, it looks like he's about to ram a hole in the wing with his feet.

Not with .081 thick alum skin backed up by stringers lengthwise and formers chordwise on the top of the wing in that area.
You can do all the aerobics you want in that area of the wing.
Pump it up.
