Hello,
Sorry if this is a daft question, but researching into helicopter flying, I see most civil pilots (Police, Air Ambulance, Coast Guard, North Sea etc) all wear helmets. I've seen some charter guys with only head-phones on.
Thus my question is this, would you recommend someone about to start their PPL(H) to invest in a helmet? I know I know, I'd probably look at idiot in my little R22 with an Alpha Eagle on my bonce, but if it adds that extra element of safety, quite frankly looking a prat is a price I'm willing to pay!
What are your thoughts?
Kelly
