Regarding the WE, of coarse, but this depends on the location were it will be done.

The wings will be in the folded position. I know that some might not agree, but naval aircraft do have folding wings!

Prosit Joe. I for one like the idea of having the wings folded.

Yes JF go for the folded wings as they will look different & a diversion from the boring normal
A change will open the doors for eye catching & attraction

I agree with both Rays. A deviation from the standard norm is sometimes good, it adds to diversity. Carrier aircraft are pictured with folded wings as well, not always extended, and it is also a space saving effort as well. Marco and chris don't worry I have plans for another sea vixen with extended wings
p.s. - F-8E and EA-6A/B and possible either the C-2 or E-2 will be with folded wings

Thanks Marco, It should have some shading as well, but it is not that obvious. Imagine how the world of naval aviation would be without folding wings!!

Good thing they are not chicken wings as either Paul or Giljan would gobble them up for you
By the way, well done and keep it up (and folded). Will look different and interesting
