Marvellous, Antonio, but why did the pilot have goggles and wears a wind-cap when he is covered by a totally closed cockpit?

At a guess, because is likely to operate it at times up and looking out directly (much like a number of pilots strenuously resisted enclosed cockpits - Italian "0 Series" aircraft had canopies on prototypes but open cockpits in production for that reason).

Hi guys

Thanks for the nice words!

After a few days of vacations in a far far away kingdom,  I'm back.

Regarding Norbert's pertinent question, the answer is very plain and simple:
Because is was the only pilot figure I had, and I was too lazy to modify it :) :) :)


See you on my next project and thanks for watching!

If caps and goggles were good enough for Oddball, Moriarty and Gen. Patton, they'll be good enough for Antonio's pilot!  :)



Cheers,
Moritz
