Re: Luftwaffe Haube
Hi Alec, it is certainly original, no doubt about that.
As far as I know, these were worn by both fighter and bomber crews as winter wear.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: Luftwaffe Haube
I agree with Ade (and there is an answer on the GHW as well). Nice flight helmet, but missing it's throat mikes and rear lead for the earphones.
Best wishes

Re: Luftwaffe Haube
Hello Ade, Bob,
Thanks for the posts. Bob you'll have to let me know what GHW means. Yesterday I was at the Military Fair in Reichertshofen, I found three helmets same model on offer, none had throat mikes or rear leads for earphones. Don't know why?
Regards

Re: Luftwaffe Haube
Hi Alec, the lack of the throat mikes, wiring loom etc is simply due to these not yet being installed on the helmet. The were designed to be replaced etc and they were a separate stores item. The same thing applied to their RAF counterparts.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: Luftwaffe Haube
And I agree with Ade again. (GHW= German Helmet Walhalla), where you also posted the helmet photos.
