Default EA-6B over the house on final - EA-6B 060415-N-0490C-005.jpg (1/1)

Thanks, Martin.

Actually I knew those thingies were air brakes, but I was really trying to
find out why the insides were painted orange. Is it just for decoration or
does it serve a (safety or other?) purpose?

Also, in Tom's next picture you can see that insides of the (leading edge
slats?) are also painted orange. Again, is there a purpose?

Thanks in advance.

Tom
