RAF E-type flying helmet

RAF E-type flying helmet

Code: H23105

SOLD

Stores Reference 22c/973-976.  Size unmarked but is very large so must be a generous '4'.  The aertex cloth is in excellent condition showing light use and soiling only.  Both rubber earpieces are in very good flexible condition and the interior of the helmet/inner chamois donuts is equally good.  Some minor verdigris deposits on the metal studs.  The chinstrap retains good colour and elasticity but has some damage to the edge.  All the goggle straps are very good and the press stud poppers have virtually all of the original brown coating.  Wired with a light tan coloured loom and black cased jackplug.  The receivers are actually reproductions made from wood but look OK.  A very good used example in a huge size.  Stock code H23105.
