The Barnstormer is a community-created cosmetic item for the Engineer. It is an old-fashioned, dark, team-colored pilot's hat with brown leather flight goggles, a black moustache and loose straps.
This item has two styles, named "Bugscreen Up" and "Bugscreen Down". The "Bugscreen Up" style puts the goggles up on the Engineer's forehead, while "Bugscreen Down" puts them down, covering the Engineer's eyes and welding goggles.
The Barnstormer was contributed to the Steam Workshop.
