USAAF A-11 intermediate flying helmet

Code: H21255

By Fox Chase Knitting Mills Inc.  Size large.  The leather is in excellent condition, very clean and supple with good straps.  Excellent Bennett type buckle and the chinstrap is equally good although the metal end tip is absent.  Lovely clean lining marked with a USAAF embroidered label and AAF ink stamp.  Wired with a standard 'Y' loom, matched ANB-H-1 receivers by Western Electric and red PL-354 jackplug.  Fitted with a 'flat' hook/clip so it is ready to be used with an oxygen mask. This is the later war variant with a buckled rear adjustment strap and leather reinforced oxygen mask press studs.  A really excellent lightly used example.  Stock code H21255.
