    ID this nylon jacket from just a description.

    OK, first off, please do not call it a "bomber jacket." It is always a flight jacket. I am guessing from your description that it is a Nylon USMC WEP Jacket. I am not sure about the piping that you describe, but does it resemble this picture?

    That is three minutes and twenty seconds of pure beauty. I haven't seen that movie since I was a kid, but now that I am a pilot, that group take off scene makes me nervous.

    Man, I hope I can look that cool when I am that age. He looks like what I would imagine an experienced aviator with a lot of awesome stories to be like.

    I'm not sure this would be considered a flight jacket, but it is being worn by Colonel Steve Austin. Plus it has NASA patches on it.

    Two Lancaster bomber planes fly together for first time in 50 years

    I wonder with the advent of 3D printing, how much longer issues like this for vintage aircraft will be solved? In fact, how much easier will it be for more WWII aircraft to become airworthy on parts that have been non-existent for years.

    This is it. I received mine when they were still in the testing phase before they hit the fleet. They were only available in desert tan at the time, but now they are available in the supply system and they are green.
