Default Geometry of jets, e.g. Pictor A

Object e.g.
http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2016/pictora/

Is there an example of an active galaxy with extended million light
year long radio and or xray jets such as Pictor A, where the Hot
Spot is within the larger lobes rather than protruding to one side
as is the case in Pictor A?

ie, if the jet is coming right at us, then the hot spot ought to
be close to centered within the lobe on our side of the BH emitting
the jets.

Has anyone written a paper where they studied the position of the
hot spot(s) within the larger lobes to estimate the orientation of
the jets relative to our line of sight?

Thanks,

rt
