English: The complete pressure-suit ensemble used by Wiley Post for inflight studies. Liquid oxygen is in the spherical tank. The liquid-to-gas conversion unit is attached to the top of the tank. The oxygen-inflow tube leads from the converter to the left side of the helmet. In Post's left hand is the outflow pressure-monitoring gauge. A second gauge on the oxygen converter gives inflow pressure information. Photograph taken at Wright Field. |
