Luftwaffe fliegerbluse

[solothurn]

New to the Forum. I collect weapons used by the german forces between 1914-1945. I just received a "kanalhose", electrically heated, by an accident. I do not collect Luftwaffe (before now) so my knowledge is scarce. Was just offered a fliegerbluse for private with yellow weaponcolor. There are no insigna except the shoulder boards with yellow piping, collar patches with one wing on each and the luftwaffe breast eagle. My first question is, were there private ranks serving in german aircraft? What kind of role did they have? What ranks did the different personnell in aircrafts (and squadrons) have?

Thanks for information

Yes, a Gefreiter could be a pilot or any other aircrewman (paratrooper too). If you can post a few pics I'm sure all of us would like to see it (and the Kanalhosen too)
