A helmet for the
everyday pilot.
Not just for test pilots and air shows. A Team Wendy shell, your own headset fitted into it, and a price that does not assume you fly for a living.

This started because I could not find one.
I went looking for a cost effective but genuinely safe backcountry aviation helmet, and it proved close to impossible. So I bought a 3D printer and made the adaptors myself, to fit a Bose A20 into a military-style shell. I put a few photos online and other pilots started asking where they could get one.
- We believe a helmet is for the everyday pilot. Not just for competition and not just for the professionals.
- We believe aviation is already expensive enough. Safety gear should not be the thing that breaks the budget.
- We believe your headset should come with you. You already own one you like. It belongs in the helmet.
- We believe in giving back to the pilot community. This is not the day job and it is not meant to be.
Tailwinds,

Headset compatibility
Your headset goes in it.
You already own a headset you trust and know the sound of. Rather than ask you to buy a second one, we make the stirrup adaptors that mount it into the shell. Order a complete helmet with the adaptors already fitted, or buy the adaptors on their own and build it yourself.

From the people flying in them
Whenever I fly over the rugged terrain of Alaska I trust this helmet to keep me safe in the event of a bad day.
Wearing a helmet in the backseat of a cub makes me feel safer when landing on and off-airport.
Flying in one of ours? We would like to hear how it is working out.
Built one at a time, on nights and weekends.
Every helmet is assembled to order in the hangar, which is why most take about two weeks. If you need one sooner than that, email us and we will tell you straight.
