FBS has made an excellent template for those of you that want to personalise their own pilot. The template comes as a PSD or a Gimp and Paintshop file.
Included is-
3 kinds of goggles
34 different uniforms
with chin strap or without
and 16 faces if you dont want to add your own.
It is also very easy to use
