Hello and Happy New Year to all!
Thanks for comments. I will make more pictures of the iner and back of the coat.
About the mapcase: I will check if possible to reproduce but I hve serious doubt on it....one think sure, never a computer will be able to enter :)
Matrioska, will post...
Here is one of the originals used to make the repro.
Note also the very rare PL 3 M parachute harness and the leather pre-war mapcase with specific pouches for navigation ruler and disk.

I've found a tailor and leather craftsman in Armenia (where a friend of mine lives) who uses the exact sewing point...his sewing machine looked like an original!!:) :)
The inner part is in blue diagonal wool, like original. 2 inches thick padded between leather and liner.

Hello,
As no maker decided to make repro of these superb flying coats, I've decided to find leather and craftsman to make a little serie...let me know your thoughts about.:)
If someone interested to make one, let me know too.
Cheers
