My basic knowledge is that the flight helmet looks like the Type C Wired and that the oxygen mask could be the Type E*. As to which plane(s) were and when they were used, I think they were used in most type of late 2nd WW british-used airplanes.
I suppose a member with lots more knowledge of RAF equipment will be able to give more inforrmations on this subject.
