THE SECOND WORLD WAR
AIRCRAFT CARRIER BASES

BH-23     USS Bunker Hill, Pilot in One Piece Flying Suit   (1pc)      US$42

Flight clothing was largely left up to the individual"s personal preference.
Most pilots wore a khaki shirt and trousers,
instead of the one piece flying suit,
as the one piece flying suits were deemed too hot or uncomfortable.

The QAC (Quick, Attach, Chest) or QAS,
parachute harness was worn by pilots.
When not in the plane the leg straps are normally snapped to
the sides of the harness to keep them out of the way.
The parachute pack,
pararaft kit and seat cushion are not attached to the harness,
as these were most often left in the plane.
As the pilot climbed into the seat,
it was then easier for them to be attached to the QAS harness.
