Frank M Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 Jos -As always, you've got an outstanding talent for obtaining the necessary field equipment to add the required depth of realism to your displays. Either that, or you have a very understanding wife, who allows you to get away with financially murdering your household expense account!Nice grouping of "fliegern".Respectfully,Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jos Le Conté Posted September 15, 2005 Author Share Posted September 15, 2005 Thanks Frank !Seems you're the only one who enjoys flight uniforms and equipment ..!?

Luftwaffe Rules Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Would you mind telling me what the man, third from left is wearing on his head? He looks downright MEAN! Man that is a beautiful grouping...I would put him w/ a drawn P.38 or Luger, or something...he just looks ready to roll!

Frank M Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Jos -That early cold weather face mask must be an uncommon item. I have not had the opportunity to review such an item before. Congratulations on your having acquired it.Frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jos Le Conté Posted October 2, 2005 Author Share Posted October 2, 2005 Thanks guys..!Thanks Frank,A friend of mine bought a box full of flightstuff a while ago from a guy who actually didn't collect...He got it rather cheap..In it were a mint Summer flightsuit,flightboots,a swimmingvest and the mask..I could take the mask for less,which I did..These small benefits still make collecting fun,no ?Jos.

Bob Hunter Posted October 2, 2005 Share Posted October 2, 2005 Interesting flight gear collection, Jos. How long have you been assembling your collection? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jos Le Conté Posted October 9, 2005 Author Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hi Bob,Hard to say..But let's say the last 10 years.Before that I was constantly changing and I've sold my entire collection twice and started all over again..All and all I've 30 years experience so to say,but maybe a 13 years "new" collection..Times are getting rough and it's not hard to locate the good stuff,but the prices are killing me..and everybody else IMO..I had to adjust my want list many times lately,but in a way I still can find some items..The fun factor is dropping though,but we all know that,no ?Jos.
