Thanks for that informative set of pictures, WTE_Galway. They certainly show the application!

In all these years of viewing pictures, I"ve never noticed the sunglasses before or seen them used. Remarkable!

Luftwaffe Flying Steel Helmet:

I stumbled upon this picture a few days ago. Here’s a fellow wearing one.
Some individual flight crews it seems took the initiative and used the Luftwaffe issued steel helmet to give them some protection from gun-shot and splinters.

I'm a bit "scared" to mention this on this forum because I suspect that it has been addressed in the AI behaviour improvements in SoW, but I presume that one will be able to keep up with one's flight in SoW?
I must say, on some '1946' missions, as much as speed off behind my leader on the runway, keep the ascent gradual, push the airplane as much as I can (subject to overheating etc) my flight disappears slowly, but surely, into the distance.
