One never knows?   Looks like a staged photo as chute and seat straps are all very loose.  Not ready for flight.

So here I am at 4 am, unable to sleep because of a heatwave and I stumble on this photo:

What's unusual is the SCR-183 / 283 coil box behind her. It's complete with its cover, but why is it there? What is it hanging from? Is that a normal stowage position?
