Grumman EA-6B Prowler BuNo 163890, VAQ-134 "Garudas"

            I was really looking forward to getting good shots of Prowlers on this trip but it just wasn't in the cards.  They either landed left or broke really tight, like right over gate 1 if they landed right.  That said, this CAG-bird had some type of problem that required the pilot to engage the arresting cable on 21L, giving us the opportunity to get shots with the hook down.  Glad they were able to land safely.
