2nd hand Helmet wanted.
A civvy flying mate has done me a favour, and requested a bit of Aviation History in return, to brighten up his office. Specifically, an old RAF Flying Helmet. The Mk 4 looks like a desirable version. Which is much more achievable than a polished Spitfire prop !!
I've searched online however all I can find is reconditioned ones outfitted with new avionics, which are a bit out of my price range. Ebay just offers me USA versions, and dodgy 'Genuine Russian Top Gun' dodgy deals...
Can anybody recommend a more affordable option? It would NOT be used for flying, so I'm not concerned with it's airworthiness or structural integrity. Just as long as it looks relatively complete.
Many thanks, RG.
