The Lynx helmet and visor system is designed for use with Lynx headsets and combines with them to form an integrated assembly. As the
headset can be used without the helmet, this equipment provides a flexible communication system that can be used in both open-cockpit
and enclosed-cockpit aircraft. When fitted with a visor and an optional visor extension, the complete assembly forms a streamlined full face helmet for use in the fastest open-cockpit aircraft.
HELMET
A hard helmet manufactured from Polycarbonate with a moulded Styrene trauma liner and fabric lining. The visor design incorporates an aerodynamic peak, smooth pivot mechanism and a manual latch to lock the visor in the closed position. To provide unrestricted vision when
used with a visor extension, the visor opens fully and also locks into the open position. The helmet is certified to the European standard EN966 and is CE marked.
Now, improved helmet:- New Improved Helmet Design - 1st February 2011. Lynx Avionics has announced significant improvements to the design of its aviation helmets. Lynx helmets now have an outer shell of high impact Polycarbonate and an internal trauma liner made from a combination of Polystyrene and Viscoelastic Polyurethane Foam (Memory Foam). The new trauma liner moulds to the shape of the user's head, which makes the helmets very comfortable, whilst the composite design of the liner maintains full impact protection. In addition, the collar padding has been redesigned to prevent helmets tilting forward when used with flying suits that also have a large collar. The helmet side straps are also longer to allow the helmet to fit over a headset more easily. These latest improvements combine to make Lynx flying helmets the most comfortable and user friendly on the market. Lynx Avionics helmets are CE marked and certified against the European Standard EN966:1996 'Helmets for Airborne Sports'.
