Picked Up an A11 flight helmet

**AZPhil** · 10-14-2019, 12:02 AM

Hello All,
I wanted to add one of these but since I got my medium AN-H-15 and it didn't fit my head, I knew I needed to find a Extra large A11.
Well it took sometime to find the right size at the right price. I got this one for $110+$10 for shipping. I think I did alright for an Extra large one!
Now I got something to wear when I watch "Cold Blue" again. It has the receivers but no comm cord. I can find one of those easy enough.

I had to use the Female head at the time since I got the mannequin for my Aunt Annie's uniform and garrison cap

Thanks Gent's
Marty,
Cold Blue is a AAF B-17 documentary in Britain on HBO. Its Awesome and it is redone digitally from original pilots filming's and its in color and crisp and clear.
You gotta see it. They showed it to B-17 vets and you could see it had an emotional affect on them. Very touching.

Gary,
It took years to find an extra large and when I saw the price, I sent the seller several questions and all came back with what I wanted to hear. I had to have it!!

I couldn't be happier!
