Interesting, but dated subject matter

This book provides a unique and interesting look into flight helmets. Unfortunately, there is little background/descriptions besides simple model designation that accompany the photos. In addition, given the age of this book, it lacks information on modern helmets and sighting systems.

I've waited years to buy this book and I love it!

I've covetted this book from afar since first seeing it in the 90's, but have never managed to find a local copy since. I took a chance and somehow managed to get this and the companion volume for the price of one of these books on eBay. Outstanding value. I love this book and highly recommend it to anyone interested in military kit, or in the evolution of military aviation safety equipement and headgear. It is true geek porn! A true must own for anyone into cold-war military aviaition especially.

Excellent

Excellent review of the all the basic flight helmets. Outstanding photos. Only downside I see is that the descriptions/history of each type could be more in-depth. Since there is nothing out there better (that I have seen), it's still a must have for anyone collecting these helmets.

Splendid overview

Jet Age Flight Helmets is giving a very useful overview of the topic. It is packed with beautiful colour photos making it easy to identify each helmet type. A little more information about the helmets would have been useful and the same goes for an alphabetical index. Nevertheless four stars fully earned.

Referenzwerk moderner Jet-Helme

Das Buch handelt von modernen Jet-Helmen des Düsenzeitalters von ihren Anfängen in den 50-iger Jahren einschl. der weiteren technischen Entwicklungen bis heute. Die hochwertigen Aufnahmen der Helme sind fast alle in Farbe und werden durch Erläuterungen bzw. Beschreibungen ergänzt. Auch die Helme der Astronauten und Kosmonauten werden als Jet-Helme im weiteren Sinne erklärt. Die Dartellung ist übersichtlich und klar gegliedert. Wer sich über Jet-Helme informieren will und spezifische technische Details kennenlernen will, ist hiermit gut beraten.

楽しいの一言につきる。

写真が豊富、当然ですが。マイナーなモデルまで紹介されていてオタクには「楽しい」の一言。自衛隊の記載がないのが残念。
