The trousers are not issue and these can be dismissed for a start. I suspect the shirt is post war.

Cheers, Ade.

Yes, I don't know the shirt I ask to a friend collecting this.

Agreed the jacket is missing the Flakhelfer shoulder straps. Here are some examples. It appears to be an assembled uniform from various items. I don't know about the cap or the cap insignia being original or not as it's not my area of study, but period photos do exist showing Flakhelfer members wearing Luftwaffe insignia on their caps, but as stated there is a regulation HJ Flakhelfers cap that was worn.

I have a couple of the hats with the HJ insignia but am sure I have seen photos with the Luftwaffe eagle. I think some of the kids wanted to be more grown up and more of a part of the Luftwaffe than the Hitler Youth. The current Pope was a member of a HJ flak unit.
