    AVI Leather seal A-2 Jacket Review (pic heavy)

    Got mine today. Good jacket, very similar to WW2 trim fit. I really liked the cut and the collar. Soft leather. Sorry have no time to make good photos, I live in my plane this week))) Cooper A-2, the zipper is not exact copy of the original. Only on the pull is written "Talon" and on the lock...

    I agree that 3 peace sleeve - strange for a jacket, which is positioned as a relatively accurate repro.

    AVI Leather seal A-2 Jacket Review (pic heavy)

    AVI support says that it is goat. The original Bronco seems was also from goat. Andrew several years ago showed here his original Bronco and if I remember correct that it was made from goatskin.

    AVI Leather seal A-2 Jacket Review (pic heavy)

    Only it seems to me that the "cutted" sections of the lower corners on the AVI pockets look larger than on the photos of real Bronco? Or maybe it is the photo effect?

    AVI Leather seal A-2 Jacket Review (pic heavy)

    The problem is not where exactly it is made))) Denmark never made authentic A2 in WW2, and in this case, no matter in what country the replica is made (if it's not the US))), if it's quality and good. It's embarrassing that they are showing a slow and strange service and I have less and less...

    Which is your favorite G-1?

    An-140 not so long ago. Now on another cargo, but there the panel color is the same (not so gray as at 737 and not so brown as at 757). For some time we thought that we would be on the airbus and even started the program, but then the bosses changed their minds and we stayed on the russians and...

    Which is your favorite G-1?

    El Marro, you are absolutely right ... so many variations))) When I first picked up a 70s G-1 jacket, I naively hoped that it was enough just to understand what size it would be right. However, this was only the beginning of the road, and the further it was not easier, but rather more difficult...

    Which is your favorite G-1?

    Thank you, colleague, I got a little lost control, will not happen again))) Just this character ... OK, let's not talk about))) Thank you for your kind words about my G-1. I really long time tryed to understand which G-1 jacket will fit me better. I had a couple of 70-s jackets in 42 and 44...
