    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Some of these surplus and army/navy stores are bad at updating their websites. The first link is the most accurate in terms of photos. The second link is "old" Alpha photos from a few years back. Same jacket, different photos.

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Are you looking at the German website? They have completely different models on the German website than the U.S. website. Please specify. As for the green colour, I believe they only make one colour, which is a medium green colour.

    One Hellovah Yard Sale Find

    Allow me to channel Dumpster Diver for a moment... Please don't chop up this amazing coat just because you like the zipper. That's like buying a Gullwing MB just so you can pull the hood ornament off. This reminds me of all those military button nuts who buy amazing old military coats, cut the...

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Valley Apparel, which has government contracts, is now in the nylon business: http://valleyapparel.net/product-category/commercial-2/ US Wings is selling their MA-1 and nylon CWU. Although these are clearly civilian jackets, it's nice that they're made in the USA.

    Navy WEP Jacket: Your Thoughts & Experiences

    The Cockpit... that's an excellent name for a gay nightclub. These guys are offering what appears to be a really good WEP repro: http://www.militarysupplyhouse.com/jacketsus5.htm. I suspect they might be getting them from G&B. I'll take a look at Cockpit. US Wings had a version too but now they...

    Navy WEP Jacket: Your Thoughts & Experiences

    Although I'd like one of these jackets, that exactly why I will never get one (although maybe a modern day repro would have more length).

    road less traveled for jacket nuts? the N-2B flight jacket...am i crazy 4 loving it?

    ^ It's a big surprise to me that a Replica series jacket has no value. I notice that the seller has raised the price; I guess I should tell him your experience, although perhaps he'll get lucky. He told me he was thinking of keeping it and he should. - - - - - here's a nice looking vintage one:

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

    I like the N3A the best of the series with those exposed cuffs and the blue nylon, and zipping and buttoning right to the bottom. If only the sleeves were another inch or two longer...

    road less traveled for jacket nuts? the N-2B flight jacket...am i crazy 4 loving it?

    That jacket is on e-Bay UK and I asked the seller, but it's too short for me, only 22" down the back. I explained to him that he's got a Replica Series jacket from the 1990s and that he should be selling it for a lot more than 30 quid!
