The dangling mask in the movies was so you could identify the character. With
mask and goggles on you would never know who the character is.


I thought the 1991 Movie "Memphis Belle" did ok in the scenes where the crew
have their masks up.

I guess it would be easier to recognise bomber crews at their stations -
fighters could be a little less easy.

Mind you, in the film 'The Battle of Britain' it was fairly easy to pick
out the voices of Robert Shaw and Michael Cain - and John Wayne in
'Flying Leathernecks'!

Cheers,
