After talking with a few ex F-14 mechanics, its come to my attention that the wing inflation bag on the fuselage is inflated at all times when the engines are running, and the only time its not inflated is when the wings are in the "oversweep" position for storage in the hangar and carrier. Knowing this will make the decision on how to tackle the wing bag much easier.
