From the photos I have seen it covered almost the whole of the lower
face, which instinctively looks more comfortable than some other types.
I have used the RAF Type H, which edges into the cheeks somewhat, and
when you take it off you look like Homer Simpson.


That was the kind that we wore in the fifties , sixties etc. Sort
of a dark green colour and they had a carbon microphone in them
for the intercom system.

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).

Cheers,

Dave

Ok Dave...I need to do it in a sort of round about fashion though
(it has the ad(disad)vantage of showing my picture also) use the
URL http://www.qrz.com/ and type into the little window 've1eo'.
That's my Amateur Radio callsign, then click on 'show email
address' just below my picture...

Why I'm so touchy about spam is that I got into a real mess here
on usenet with spam. I had my real address showing somewhere in
my message headers and in about two years it had built up to 5 or
6 hundred msgs a day. Last measured it at 945 pieces in a 12 hour
period. It had shut my email right down so I had to change my
email address. Hateful task that...

Spoof it...

My email as far as Usenet is concerened is
a computerised bot prog will try and use the whole thing... a thinking
human being can look at it and select to remove the obvious spam
blocking thing

Yes...I did that...see my id line above...but somewhere in the
header my real email address was showing. It's in the area that
shows when you select "Show all header fields".

You might try www.mailblocks.com, though in my experience the free
account isn't generous enough unless you empty the Pending mailbox
every day. Pay $10 a year and you're golden.
