    I ran across this pic on the net and thought that maybe the A-2 would get some screen time in the new film.

    Back when he was in the Navy I don't think it was too difficult to get your hands on a flight jacket.

    I stand corrected, it is a 45/P. Good catch Doctor Damage! I thought it was strange to see the jacket as well, especially with the Velcro missing.

    Famous People in Flight Jackets

    Here's one from "When Harry Met Sally." Billy Crystal is wearing a CWU-36 with the Velcro nametag patch removed. Not very good pictures of the jacket, but the best I could find on the interwebs.

    Unintended 'water treatment'... advice requested...

    I agree, It's not that expensive. Especially for a jacket you love.

    Anyone interested in/wearing original military watches?

    This is my everyday wear. It is, as I have found out recently, a "vintage" Seiko RN helicopter pilots watch. I traded a leather flight jacket for it when I spent two weeks aboard the HMS Ark Royal. I say vintage because I recently had to have the crown replaced and the Seiko repair facility...

    Gibson and Barnes pu coating

    When I first joined the Navy, the leather shoes we were issued had a coating on them. We called it "quartermaster" and it had to be removed before we could put polish on them. The coating was something that was put on the leather to protect them while in storage at the warehouse. We used...

    Gibson & Barnes is custom order now?

    I stopped in there two weeks ago and wanted to buy a G-1. They didn't have my size in the military G-1 and I was told that they were not going to be making anymore jackets until the fall. So I would have to check back then to see if they were starting up production again. Needless to say I was...

    Blue Angels Baercats

    That's a great video! Thanks for posting. I find it funny that the original Blue Angels probably would never make todays team. They were hell raisers back in the day. The "old school" aviator doesn't exist in todays Navy. If they are there, they don't last long.
