Attached is a good photo of an EA-6B. You'll notice that the tail is way over the side. It was not uncommon for us to walk on the turtleback and stand on the horizontal stabilizer to pull maintenance checks, etc. From there you could look straight down onto the water below. The tail was out past the nets so there was nothing to catch you should you fall. Kind of scary, but I was young and stupid then.

This is an EA6B Prowler which is an Electronics Warfare EW aircraft. It seats four and I don't believe it has any weapons. This plane is very secret and photos of the cockpit are illegal to have.
