Sabrejet Posted February 10, 2014 Share #1 Posted February 10, 2014 It's been a good few weeks! With a little help from my friends (thanks fellas ) I've been able to add three pairs of goggles to my collection. Such goggles don't come cheap but they are all in great shape! They comprise of a pair of B7s, AN-6530s and Skyways, all manufactured by the Chas Fischer Spring Co of Brooklyn, NY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sabrejet Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted February 10, 2014 Slightly different vent tubes....clear and green tinted AO glass lenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share #9 Posted February 10, 2014 The Skyways. Plastic lenses...overall, not quite as robust as the military-issue goggles, but used by military aviators nevertheless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabrejet Posted February 10, 2014 Author Share #10 Posted February 10, 2014 Spare goggle strap. These can be found in black, white and grey and are completely interchangeable. They are no more than a 1" cotton elasticated tape with a spring clip at either end and a sliding adjustment buckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
