Open Cockpit Helmet
I was wondering if anyone could recommend / suggest a good helmet for vintage open cockpit aeroplanes. Particularly the Tiger Moths. I don't really feel like having a motorcycle helmet, as I feel that would not keep a little bit of authenticity.
That said, I presently own a trusty pair of DavidClarks H10-30 which have been with me since I started flying, but also a more modern Bose A20 (which I now absolutely adore), and ideally I would be looking for a leather / cloth helmet that could accommodate either a DC H10-30 or Bose A20.
A little googling brought up a company called Gibson-Barnes who produce helmets that fit the headsets - does anyone have any experience with them?
Am I completely barking at the wrong tree? Anyone got any better suggestions, to keep a little authenticity but also keep my hearing intact?
Thanks.
