I think that's the first time I've seen A4's post a helo... Nice shot by the way, bruddah!

Great post Pags!! Thanks.

A4's: Good pic of some SSC...they must have been getting ready to "RIG" it at "500" feet, 350 kts.

Navy Mk IV Pressure Suit

After doing some googling, I think it's a Navy Mk IV high altitude flight suit (the mercurcy spacesuits were derived from it). Sadly, I couldn't find a good pic of it.

Thanks for the help, I guess my google-fu was weak that day.

Just noticed this... what's that giant metal thing coming out of his crotch? Kinda weird...

That's an exhaust pipe.. Ventilation is necessary on a poopy suit.
