I don't have a better photo of EA6B on the ground in the configuration he showed in the B&W photo, but if someone finds one, you'll see the same thing. When flaps fully extended (30 degrees vs. 20), the trailing edge of the flap next to the fuselage is really close to the exhaust. In flight, flaps fully retracted, the distance is considerably greater.
