warpath Posted October 15, 2016 Share #1 Posted October 15, 2016 A-11 Flight Helmet X-Large with covered ear pieces, first I've had with this feature (or I just don't recall seeing it)...The Extra Large label was sewn over the original tag.

Navybean Posted October 15, 2016 Share #9 Posted October 15, 2016 I believe the covered ear phones and mask mic modification is a post war modification. I believe this was done to the standards of the A13 helmet (the green leather flight helmet). Nice helmet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bazelot Posted October 20, 2016 Share #11 Posted October 20, 2016 I just bought almost exactly the same one. It is a mid to late 50s modification for jet airplanes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AV8R Posted February 16, 2017 Share #12 Posted February 16, 2017 Had no idea these were being worn into the 1950s jet age Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
