Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress
Walk Through page 4
This
page will show various views of the ball turret in the B-17
These next three shots show a ball
turret with ammunition feed chutes.
Here is a ball turret with the oxygen
bottle above. I would assume that the lat war models had both the
ammunition feed chutes and the oxygen system in place.
Because of the cramped quarters of the
ball turet, it is normally closed to tours. These shots are taken
through the window of the ball turret from the outside.
