    Who makes the best A2 repro

    Ascots

    Was at a party on an ad-agency last night. Normally adpeople dress more down than up, so I thought I would stand out. Charcole suite, charcole shirt and maroone cravat with beige dots. It worked!;) (Unfortunately I do not have any pics myself - but a lot was taken, so if one pops up, I'll...

    Why Do I Love The Dutch?

    It was most certainly not my intention to start a rumble here - just thought somebody was interested in how allied soldiers and airmen were remembered in other countries than Holland. So sorry. I will remove my post from this All Dutch Thread!

    Ascots

    I only get positive reactions - like: "Hi pilot, wheres your spitfire parked?" (Usually a male comment) Or: "You look very dashing/charming/sexy/!" (Allways a female comment) And if somebody meant any different, I wouldn't give a damn.;) (easy to say when you are as old as I am - I know!)

    Customer experiences with Aero Leather

    Great servcice When I got my Irvin last year, AERO was in such a hurry shipping it out to me, that they forgot to mount the neckchain. On the other hand I was keen to wear it, since the days were getting colder and winter was around the corner. Now - as the temperatures are rizing - I called...

    BATTLE OF BRITAIN (1940) - Respecting THE FEW.

    Read it last year. As far as I remember, it was a good read. Allthough it wasn't as revealing as I thought/hoped it would be. Enjoy! And while I am here: I have just strated up on Matthew Parkers The battle of Britain. I think I am going to like it, being a sucker for personal stories and...

    BATTLE OF BRITAIN (1940) - Respecting THE FEW.

    C'mon Chas, there is nothing to debate here. You've said very clearly what you think about new books on Battle of Britain -and the people who buy and read them. You've also stated that you think Battle of Britain was nothing to write (home) about. We are some who feels differently...

    BATTLE OF BRITAIN (1940) - Respecting THE FEW.

    Was the Battle of Britain that important? Yes it was! There is no doubt in my mind. Was it one of the great turning points of WWII? Maybe not – but it was, as Mr. Churchill said: “The end of the beginning”. Would Hitler have invaded UK in 1940? I don’t know – and nobody knows really...
