I recently aquired this postcard size portrait of what appears to be a winter flight suit or ground crew suit. Does anyone have any idea what this guy is wearing?

Sure! He's wearing an early one piece suede flight suit and Lkp W100 helmet...
There's no difference among fighters or bombers flight equipments, only personal choice ... somethings asked by the cockpit they have to 'dress', other times for availability or personal reason.
At the time wich the pics was taken, more of the flight equipment that we know, wasn't available, and the guy can fly on a several type of plane and in a several crew position...
Cheers!

That's true, Jos!
I have had the same thought.... They looks like the standard ones (straps on upper edge), but are bigger and less 'fitted' as the 'original' ones...
Mabe they're only made all in the same leather (instead of the suede, more smooth, used in the upper part), brand new and slightly large?
Who knows?
