This is a great Type A-9 Summer Flight Helmet type A-9, summer, in fair condition with an original set of AN-6530 goggles. The A-9 is a simple unlined summer flying helmet constructed from four segments of heavy cotton. It features hooks to fit the harness of either the type A-9 or type A-10 Standard oxygen masks, tie strings (forehead and neck) for adjustment and a fleece-covered leather chin strap.The AN-6530 goggles are in very rough shape, with the rubber having completely disconnected from the goggles themselves. When set on a mannequin with the helmet, they will remain in place, but otherwise they are separated. The helmet retains its original chin-cup which is also tan-colored and connects fine to both sides of the helmet. The helmet also retains its wire for radio use. Rough shape overall but a nice set.

A fair set in rough condition, ready for further research and display.
