In the final space battle in Return of the Jedi, we see that the Falcon is flown by Lando, with the Sullustian Nien Numb as co-pilot. However, we never see the turrets fire, nor do we see any mention of them. Since even the most minor of background characters will have a larger appearance in legends material, is it ever stated who manned the turrets in the Falcon during the Battle of Endor?
