Re: B-26 Bale Out Procedure
Andy, please refer to the attached photo for your question. The nose wheel needed to be lowered in order for the nose hatch to be opened so the nose crew could bail out. More often then not, they used the bomb bay instead. I can imagine lowering the nose wheel in an emergency can take too long, be bloody dangerous and cause drag. Danny
