History:
The Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS) played a crucial role in World War I, conducting reconnaissance, bombing, and anti-submarine patrols. Pilots operating in the harsh conditions of northern Europe and over the North Sea required warm, protective clothing to endure freezing temperatures at altitude and in open cockpits. Fur-lined coats were a standard part of cold-weather flying gear, providing essential insulation against wind chill. This figure captures the rugged, practical appearance of RNAS pilots during the war, adding authenticity and historical depth to aviation dioramas.
