Halifax YAM  8 Indersiden af Tårn til agterskytten.
Tårnet er roteret, så vi kunne kigge ind.

Hvis agterskytten skulle ud i en fart, skulle
han dreje tårnet, så det pegede lige bagud,
åbne skydedørene bag sædet, få fat i
faldskærmen i det tilstødende rum og
fæstne den i seletøjet. Hans valg om han derpå ville ud af flyet længere fremme
eller om han ville rotere tårnet og kaste
sig ud.

The inside of Turret for the Rear Gunner.
The turret is rotated for a better view.
If the Rear Gunner had to bail out in a hurry
he had to rotate the turret, so it pointed straight backwards, open the sliding doors behind him, get his parachute in the next
room and attach it to his harness.
His choice if he would then abandon the
plane from the hatch in the lower part of the
fuselage or if he would rotate his turret and
throw himself out.
