I have a used David Clark K-10 hard helment for sale. No headset, but with liner to hold a headset and with pads. It has a crack in one side by the ear flap, could probably be patched easlily with epoxy or fiberglass. It could be used a part of a manaquin or static display also. It is the tan type I wear in my plane, not a soft or historic stlye. It is lighter and more comfortable than the big military types. One size for all. Please send me a PM if interested, $50 includes US shipping, list price is about $350 new. Note this helment has been used only in Spitfires, it has no jet or T-28 cooties in it. It has been subject mostly to less than 5gs, and mostly the melodic sounds of a Rolls Merlin, only an occasional harsh word from the tower controllers. As of Mon the 13 it has been sold. WIX worked!

Thanks Kirsten, glad you liked the wording. It is possible I may sell my visor one day. It has a history of liberal democratic views uncluttered by any sightings of Weapons of Mass Destruction, and the headset never listens to Bush or Rush so not contaminated by Words of Much Deception. You look good in that T-6!
