bongodriver Posted December 1, 2016 Posted December 1, 2016 OK so not directly related to the Spit but this chap will only be seen in it, the mask shown in the recent pics show the pilot wearing an 'M' type oxygen mask which is a mask from the 1950's and used mostly in Canberras, it should be either 'E' or 'G' Type for the period up to 1944 and an 'H' type post 1944. 'M' Type as seen in the screenshots Correct 'E' type. later 'F' Type 'H' Type (very commonly seen to this day by warbird pilots who like period gear) modernised version of the 'H' with current spec microphone. some useful info on flight equipment history http://www.best-of-flightgear.dk/ukoxymask.htm 1
