Story says this is a real photo and has not “photoshopped”.
The “Hole in the Wall” is in Window Rock Arizona, I don’t know the exact size of the hole. it's about 200 feet high.… An A-4 threaded the needle at 300 knots. The picture can found on the Douglas Aircraft VIPs website or by searching for “Harry Gann photography”. Harry was the official photographer for Douglas Aircraft until they went out of business …. later he was a photographer for the Blue Angles. I doubt it was done a second time.

The hole is 47 feet and the wing span of an A-4 is 28 feet. It could have been done with a high power telephoto lens, aircraft is behind pulling up over the rock. No photo shop required.
