This pilot suit was specially developed in conjunction with the Norwegian Royal Air Force 330 Squadron (Rescue Service) for pilots operating in Arctic areas and cold climates. SeaPilot is made from soft, durable neoprene material with integral buoyancy. The suit has a large, special, windproof hood that can be used outside a helmet and is fitted with a mouth piece for manually inflating the suit for improved insulation and flotation. The suit has no formal certification but is the preferred choice of pilots operating in tough and cold areas.

From one of the world's foremost developers and manufacturers of survival equipment
Hansen Protection has been a pioneer in safety at sea since we launched kapok lifejackets in 1932.
Our current range continues the company's strong traditions, where our greatest concern is to ensure optimal functionality and performance for all types of work at sea.
A first class survival suit can mean the difference between life and death.
As one of the world's foremost developers and manufacturers of survival equipment, Hansen Protection can offer a wide collection of survival suits. Survival can never be guaranteed, but we can guarantee that our survival suits satisfy the highest demands for safety.
Survival suits are obligatory for personnel on oil rigs, passenger ferries, merchant and fishing fleets plus in offshore helicopter transport.
Our dry suits provide sufficient buoyancy and protect against heat loss, and thus increase the survival time in cold water. All suits are tested and approved according to the strictest national and international standards.
