History:
Italian aviators during World War I flew a variety of aircraft, including domestically produced designs and Allied models like the Nieuport 11. The Roold crash helmet, made of compressed cork, was widely adopted for its balance of comfort and protection, offering some defence against head injuries in the event of a crash or rough landing. This figure captures the distinctive appearance of Italian pilots in the period, making it an excellent addition to historically accurate WWI aircraft displays.
