Here is one of my five attics:

Would an attic fan, of some sort, be feasible in this location?

No
Put the fan in the gable vent. Force a draft across the attic to
remove the accumulated heat brfore it can "soak" into the conditioned
space.
The house has AC, and three floors, and it's insulated with the
loose stuff, at least anywhere where I can 'see' the rafters.

It's California. Northern. So, it's a pretty mild climate, but,
it's as hot as blazes in these attics, so, I was just wondering
if it's better to run the home heating system fans, or, put an
attic fan in to cool the house down, without running the A/C?
