Not sure, did we?

 

I generaly don't look in the seal thread.... I don't have or want black buckles on my tan gear. ;)

 

 

I went back and read what was left of the "discussion" looks like I missed a good show.

 

 

I have seen duct tape used in a pinch to cover a.... ummm cover that was damaged so no white light got out. But never one painted. I doubt that would work very well at all.

 

We would tape over some of ours flight station instruments and radio heads that were not NVG friendly and the result was decent. It allowed enough light to bleed through the tape that you could read it without it washing out the rest of the cockpit.

To all-problem with straps on replica IBH helmet from eBay/EHobby Asia. When I wear it and secure the straps, it is very tight and it pulls on my chin to the left very bad. I adjusted it loose and it's still tight and pulling to the left. Any suggestions? Will the strap for a replica MICH 2002 work to replace it? Thanks.

 

@WrenchBender-it's not a real IR strobe, just a replica. I would paint the IR shield of a real one.

The replica IBH harness is garbage.

 

I have been using a genuine MSA Gallet replacement strap from a spare MICH 2000 and it works great.

 

The photos a few pages back from my IBH show the suspension.
