Yup, Gord, that's the one; still very much in favour as the 'H' will plug into both the WWII 'C' helmet loom and the post-war 'G' canvas helmets. If you want a good laugh, let me have your mail id and I'll send you a picture of me taken last year after a Tiger Moth flight; with my H mask, C helmet, the C jack plug shoved into a NATO converter and then into a carbon mike convertor box - everything dangles (including me - I'd just finished stretching my back when the shutter was snapped).
