The Eduard seat belt after market accessory had me remove a portion of the bulkhead upper aft of the bomb bay shown in red on the instruction sheet. Sort of like a bleacher seatthat will be aft of the wing spar. I added a thin balsa piece similar to the navigators' table in the front.

More interior work, and test fitting, I am a little hesitant to start gluing it because I ordered the brass gear from Aerocraft models and it hasn't shipped yet. I may press on as the nose gear is the only questionable item. the gear assembly is step 2 most of it attaches to the floor that is part of the radio room under the cockpit but one piece attaches to the lower floor forward of the bomb bay, and completes the cockpit/nose gear assembly. I am hoping that those pieces will flex enough to install it later.
