I'd trade all of the above options for a flyable Boulton Paul Defiant or Avro Anson I.

A realism setting that requires awkward key inputs for every awkward step of a bail out. Eject canoy, disconnect radio, disconnect oxygen, release straps, bail out, pull rip-chord etc.

I rather like allowing the crew to jump first. A small point maybe, but this also opens the possibility of having the AI perform this too under certain circumstances

One key to bail.
Each member of the crew required to press bail key. |

Picture this! We're in a bomber that's been shot up, Some of the crew are dead, some are seriously wounded and can't bail out!
I think as pilot in command, if we order our crew to bail out, one of them should tell us that we're sentencing the wounded ones certain death if we leave them. Just think how heroic it would be to bring that bomber back on one engine or do a dead stick landing in a turnip field! Or how low you'ld have to be to run out on your disabled crew! We need to be given the choice! ![]() Which comes to the point. If we've got bombers with large crews, we're going to need realistic dialogue from the AI crew members. B17 2 was a good example!

Skoshi Tiger, I like the idea regarding wounded crew.
This is actually a viable alternative. The AI could individually decide when to bail. After all, there are many cases of crew members bailing out prematurely and a couple cases of gunners landing the plane after the pilot had jumped ship... |

To have control of pulling the chute cord in a first person view would be very cool.

Yeah, nothing like free fall...
Also how about chutes being damaged, so they don't work that well ? |

Best to have scaleable difficulty levels for bailouts then. The arcade players can have their one-button-does-it-all and the simmers can jettison the canopy, unplug everything and go over the side, freefall and then pull their ripchord.
