    Flying jackets from Pakistan

    Dude, save your money and get one from a reputable dealer/maker. You can't go wrong with Eastman or Aero, or if willing to deal with the wait time, guys like Diamond Dave or Goodwear. It's false economy to get a jacket from one of the shady companies on Ebay.

    Current USAF Issue A-2s

    Geez, Elvis collar BDUs. I don't think anyone I knew liked those. They were just too.......Elvis. A real 1970s flashback. I know that most of the women I flew with didn't like the A-2 because it made them look "dumpy". They were all athletic, but short in stature. Since they seemed to be sized...

    USAF N-3B parkas - Let's talk about them!!

    I tried on my fathers Skyline N-3B in Medium last week and it was snug in the shoulders and the sleeves were short. It was too bad, since it was in outstanding condition. My niece has it now and has gotten a lot of good wear out of it recently in NE PA.

    Vicenza leather in new Aero is inconsistent

    I think I read it here or at VLJ (or maybe even somewhere else) that the Aero contract specified that a size tag was needed in the right hand pocket. So what did Aero do to make sure none were kicked back for a missing size tag? They put them in both pockets. That's the one fact that makes me...

    Bill Kelso A2 29971 cowhide, fit pictures.

    I was thinking that, but it could be in some pictures his sweatshirt is peeking out below the jacket. Still, it looks great.

    Buzz Rickson's MA-1 Flying Jacket, Blazing Red

    I'm trying to talk my wife into letting me get one of these. You know, since I don't already have jackets. Or just dropped $600 on new tires.

    The GW sale page. Oh my.

    I know that the BR L-2 series runs big. I wear a BR B-15C (mod) in 44 and an L-2 in 44 is a bit big on me.

    As the title says, I want to move my BR L-2. It's a size 44, Olive Drab. $300 shipped CONUS. If you want some pictures, contact me. I still haven't gotten around to fixing things after the whole Photobucket debacle. Thanks! monsoon1965 AT yahoo.com

    Negative comments about your jackets from others

    My daughters like my Buzz B-10 due to the "furry soft collar". I also have a DD Aero/Acme A-2. Great jacket, but since it's new, it squeaks. It's gotten better since I've been wearing it most of the fall, but my girls call it my, "talking jacket".
