People who have access to old aircraft and have sense to put small cameras here and there bring me great joy, thanks for that!

Cool.

I've been in the that very turret inflight.  Odd to be "below" the aircraft.  Very, very noisy.

That is a nice video. :aok  I'd do that in a heartbeat. :x

Now you got to think about the men who actually had the fight in them.  It's the same turret used in the 17, is it not?  Size wise I meant.

The reflection of the ground on the ball turret was awesome!
