Picture of RAF officer during Battle of Britain, 1940. The white 'prestige' flying suit he's wearing was originally issued to RAF pilots performing at the air displays of the 1930s and used as a mark of status during the Battle of Britain by those who had flown in the RAF since then. His thick-thin-thick composite braid on his shoulder indicates that he's a Squadron leader.
Over his flying suit he wears 1932 pattern life vest, this vest is supposed to be khaki or grey-green coloured, not yellow (my bad). His parachute is the 'Type C-2', the type most commonly worn by RAF pilots of single engined aircraft throughout the war. Both his life vest and chute is still unfastened
And he also wears a nice red cravat, cravats usually more favoured by pilots than neck ties
