For safety, while flying in backcountry or emergency landing, I protect my head against Cessna A-pillar with a Team Wendy SAR Tactical helmet.

My old ANR headset died and I upgraded to David Clarke One-X. I had to engineer a new 3d printed Peltor mount for earcups.

DC's have great design, where I attached an adaptor onto existing #4-40 post and bolted through it. PLA here works only in compression.

Bonus Photo of the Day 8th June 2023.
G-SJMW, Spacek SD-1 Minisport, preparing for departure back to Inverness from City Airport Manchester/Barton, during the Fly-In, 3rd June 2023.
This thing is tiny, we were watching the pilot getting in, and it didn't even come up to his waist!

EAA Biplane Model B. Built in 1973, from plans originating with the Experimental Aircraft Association of the USA, this handsome biplane is on the British Register, and is seen here at the Great Vintage Flying Weekend at the former RAF Hullavington, Wiltshire

Auster AOP.6 The Auster AOP.6 was a post-war development of the wartime Lycoming-engined AOP.5 (AOP standing for Air Observation Post, outlining its role as an artillery observation platform). This example - seen at a fly-in - is finished as an aircraft of the RCAF, the Royal Canadian Air Force. The all-over yellow scheme was intended to make it stand out against a snowy landscape, in the event of forced landing. The cartoon character painted on the nose (an example of 'nose art') is that of the dastardly 'Captain A.R.P. Reilly-Ffoull' of Arentwee Hall, from the British cartoon strip, 'Just Jake', drawn by Bernard Graddon and published in the Daily Mirror from 1938 to 1952. -Ffoull
