History:
During World War I, US Army Air Service pilots were tasked with reconnaissance, air combat, and support missions in a variety of challenging conditions. Preparing for flight involved methodically putting on layers of protective gear, including leather suits, gloves, and headgear, to endure the cold and wind at altitude. This figure portrays an American pilot in the final stages of gearing up, ready to climb into his aircraft, offering modellers a historically accurate and engaging scene to incorporate into their displays.
