RE: Best Helmets

["Grossman, Kevin" <Kevin.Grossman@bayfront.org>]

We use the CGF Gallet helmet at Bayflite.  The Gallet is very comfortable
and lightweight.  I would
strongly recommend it,  especially if you wear your helmet for long periods
of time.  I have had
less trouble with the avionics and visors than with previous brands.
