My commentary was mostly snark... But I am curious. I don't think the Boeing guys wear helmets on their test acft, and when Bombardier was testing the GLEX, their test guys weren't wearing them.

A crash helmet won't do anything for your eyes that are about to get poked out. (Not seeing visors, though they may be there.)

Sorry to derail the thread, though this is VERY a.net apropos.
