Mega Pilot

 

Expertly crafted by hand from Glass and Epoxy resins for perfect 33-40% pilot, you can even get the helmet painted in a custom color to match your plane! The standard colors are Red, Blue and Silver, we chose Red.  I must say I was very impressed when I opened the box and saw the quality, detail and weight of the pilot, ours came in at 4.3 ounces. They stated 4.95 ounces and here's ours on a digital postal scale.

 

You can get the pilot in IMAC style with sun visor and radio boom or full helmet. You go to all that length to make and then skimp on the pilot, this is a focal point of your plane! These guys know exactly how make this happen, they range from $34.00 / 33% unpainted helmet style to $84.95 / 40% premium fully detailed ready to install.

Default Re: RED AREO 33 - 40% pilot

is the 33% ready? If so I'd like to have it since I ordered it way back in the beginning and got the 40% (which is outstanding!) because you didn't have the smallers ones yet.

Shoot me a PM

We actually have started a 50% size helmet for a full face pilot. Was just holding it in my hands yesterday. Very long ways to go tho before any semblance of a good faith promise date could be offered. Sorry. We do recognize the EXTREME need, but the demand for 50% pilots comes from a very exclusive and limited group. Best I can honestly say today is - someday. Maybe we could work with you to get you one of the pre-production prototypes? We will be in touch.

The leather brain bag versions (33% & 40%) are next on the new products list. We will help you open cockpit and more civilian looking guys next!

Have you see the "visor down" version we made for the Flyin Hawaiian? This is now an available option to request!
HOT HOT HOT!!
