F-86F Sabre - left side of cockpit

Note: This photo was taken from an F-86F under restoration at a museum. Pulling up on the yellow handle locks the pilot's harness, then squeezing the yellow lever right underneath the yellow handle ejects the seat (and pilot) from the plane. Note also the foot rests in front of the seat where the pilot puts his feet before ejecting.
