Hi Dave,
I finally located my copy of THE NAVIGATORS' INFORMATION FILE (1943) to look up the oxygen mask designations. The demand mask was listed as the latest in 1944 was called the A-10.It is the one we used in combat. The "spit bag" mask we used in training was continious flow and had to be set for the altitude at which it was going to be used. It came in three models. We used the A-8B. Hope this helps.

I am slowly learning the minutiae of WWII flying... I guess the continuous flow must have been a bit wasteful - and possibly irritating. Cheers, Dave -- Dave Eadsforth |
