Do update us when you decide and have worn the helmet for a while.

I am saving for one myself. I always liked the look of them, anyway, but was somewhat put off by some attitude I got for wearing a flying suit.

Then I met a Typhoon and BBMF Spitfire pilot who gave my nomex 'official' approval which was good enough for me The idea of a flying helmet also came firmly back into play when subsequently I witnessed a runway excursion in which the ship flipped upside down.

Now I don't bother with losers who look down on dressing up. To hell with them.

P.S. I would love to get my hands on a Turbulent! I fly a Condor It is amusing to moor one by the other and compare.
