Differences between LW fighter pilot and bomber flightgear

#1

I'm looking to start a few 1/48 dioramas involving LW planes. I have acquired some 1/48 LW figures (Dragon, Hasegawa, ICM etc).

I have gotten stuck in my research on the differences of LW fighter and bomber uniforms, parachute harnesses, general flightgear etc. Any directions to relavant sources is appreciated.
