Great to see the Flemish VNV and Dutch caps!

The great advantage of being British is that it allows one to understate one's amazement.
Consequently in response to the above two posts: those collections are "quite good."
seriously though, thanks for sharing.
cheers

Well, I saw a bunch of flight helmets, so I thought I'd better post. Here are photos of what I have left. This is just my USN/USMC WWII flying helmets. I had WWI, WWII, all the way up to space and high altitude, partial pressure, etc. I loved the WWI crash helmets, they were huge! I also had a WWII Japanese jet helmet which was fully enclosed. It is pictured in Mick Prodger's "Vintage Flying Helmets Before The Jet Age," Japanese section. I have kept this group intact for the most part, and have tried several museums, but they said the carrier Midway was too small for it....go figure.
Here goes...

Very old thread, but I think it deserves a boost!
I put together this display last time I was home in Spain, I will have to make room for at least one more cap when I'm back. It's not as impressive as others in this thread, but I hope it's still pleasant to look at
Hopefully we can get this thread rolling for a while again!

Migo, thanks for bringing this thread back to life!
Terrific display--you are light-years ahead of where I was when I was your age.....

"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

WOW!!! now we all know where that they have all gone!!?. they are all great gem,s.
Great collection Douglas . I'm curious what the Luftwaffe Fliegermütze with the red piping represents. I assume Flak but It's not usually seen on these sidecaps.
Regards, Al
