    US Authentic G-8

    Just noticed that the left sleeve looks longer, it was snagged on my watch. The right hand sleeve is a more accurate representation.

    US Authentic G-8

    Ok, I'm thinking that I need to add about 2 inches to the length and 1/2 inch to the sleeves. Sorry for the odd angle of the photos, hard to do on my own. Also, the jacket is holding the packaging folds a bit so the sleeves look weird in on the back photo. Comments? And if the jacket looks...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Have to be careful though, I find other stuff too, like this British shrapnel round. You see, in the US, we dig and hear "tink" and say, "oooh, what's that? Tink, tink, tink.... I've learned that over here you dig and hear "tink", you drop the shovel and walk away, looking cautiously over your...

    What Jacket Are You Wearing Today?

    Just found a Napoleon III coin and about 50 rounds of unfired WWI British .303 from the battle of Le Cateau. Kinda cool to hold a 100 year old bullet in your hand that actually saw action.

    WOW!!! Cockpit Re-Issue A-2 Part 2 WOW!!!

    Hmmmm... I should have him take in the sleeves on my Cockpit G-1. They're about an inch too long. Got a mailing address?

    The Art of the Flight Jacket (my A-2, custom artwork)

    To quote Star Wars, "Aaaaalmost there..." But I'd rather be waiting on one of Tex's Mustangs to arrive.

    The Art of the Flight Jacket (my A-2, custom artwork)

    He-he.... take a flight with our mechanic in the Stampe SV4. Ever seen Space Cowboys, the biplane scene? It's kinda like that with him. This SV4 has a Lycoming under the hood, it's a beast and a total blast to fly.

    US Authentic G-8

    Alright! This is a jacket that I've been eyeballing for quite some time. I almost purchased one from another maker, but then I discovered that US-A fabricates a model with a one piece back. That, and Shaul at US-A was awesome and answered all my emails within 24 hours; which I cannot say for...

    Love the jacket! In the UK, huh? Do you do air shows? There's a reason for this question, you can PM me.

    One of my best memories of the shuttle was watching John Glenn go back up while sitting on a longboad at Jacksonville pier. I'll never forget that day!

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Still trying to talk myself into an Eastman G-1.

    Jacket (A-2, G-1) alterations?

    Watching with interest.

    Cockpit 100 Mission G-1

    My experience with USW was very negative, times 3. The jackets just don't fit right. I don't like to bash companies, but I personally will never buy from them again, and I'll leave it at that. Pay the extra €,£,$, for Cockpit or another reputable brand. You'll thank yourself in the long run, but...

    Cockpit 100 Mission G-1

    I was unaware of this, that must be a pretty recent change. Not a good one either.

    Cockpit 100 Mission G-1

    Ok.... not to be rude, but three words, "Made To Measure". You"ll receive a jacket that fits like a glove from G&B. Just take the extra time and work with them, they're great people.

    Cockpit 100 Mission G-1

    Maybe, but we never landed our chopper wheels up in front of 50 some-odd people.
