"....and what appears to be a US bone dome? Something frowned upon in HM's RAF!"
Sorry John, that may be the real Goose himself (with the beard) but that's a Mk2A helmet (predictably, a precursor of the Mk3 series but with the g-activated/one-pull sprung visor mech, via the yellow bar); UK Phantom torso harness, Mk17 LSJ and a Type 317 man-mounted regulator. Clearly even the esteemed RN SE's wouldn't let him fly with the US helmet - all that kit was all standard RAF/Pusser's issue at the time. Which is more than can be said for the Captain's dodgy beret, surely?!
