Helmets
 
I am looking at what types of flying helmets are being used,who supplies them and how are they serviced.

Thanks for your help

Bravo November,

What sort of flying?
Military Heavy-Haulers, fast jets, helos?
Civilian Helicopters?
Ultralights?

General Textiles (Gentex) are a big supplier for military. See also David Clark website for all sorts of flight suits (including pressure suits and space suits, with ancillaries). Search ultralight sites for helmets and headsets for trikes and 3-axis u/lights.

Big subject, will probably keep you busy for a while.

BN,

If you're in the UK there's a company at Shoreham Airport, Headset Services, who deal with all the major helmet manufacturers.

I was given one of these for Christmas and while they are obviously over the top they are very well made. The only question is, how seriously do you take yourself?:)
