I'm trying to identify these two oxygenmasks. I think the second one is the MBU-5/P, but I'm not shure. And the first one I have no idea. Also does anyone knows a website with all the gear you need for several jets?

Hey Stefaan, you might be right about the second pic. It shows up rather grainy, but I believe you're correct. As for the first mask, it looks like the MBU 12/P. It's got the contemporary mask bayonets, and a center comlink. The 12/P is the infamous "Plastic Taco." They're pretty good masks, but the 20/Ps are much, much better.

The 12/P has a combination inhalation/exhalation valve, whereas on the 20/P, the exhalation valve is separate. Makes breathing much more natural, and easier at high G. You also sound less like Donald Duck when you talk. Very Happy

Try the Gentex website for more info on their entire product line.
