Group - attention!

Today, we are taking a closer look at the flight gear of another pilot, namely a United States naval aviator, who is outfitted in seasonal clothing.

Looks kind-of like a Tie Fighter pilot when fully geared up and shown in black and white!

People sometimes complain that online pilots situational awareness is too high. If we get female pilots we can see with accurate physics, it should drop pilots SA significantly, but also increase luftwobbling dramatically.

It would be cool if people could make custom helmet designs and add them to the game.

Average height should've been 5' 7" around that time, right?

It's that one guy who you invite camping that takes being outside for more than 5 hours far too seriously.

I know I (born 95) was too tall to fit my grandfather's WWII/Korean uniform by high school haha.

Is that first guy choking himself because he hates stewing in his own filth, or does it excite him?

It's part of the sealing system, those suits are designed to be water tight, doubt they had duct tape back in those days or good quality elastic rubberized tight cuffs like modern ones have.

Duct tape was invented in 1942.

Best invention ever. Fixes everything. The car wouldn't be roadworthy without it. Flat tyres, oil leaks, no problem. I won't mention the bedroom.
