Didn't think of the movie Top Gun angle (never saw it, but have been encouraged to do so); I wouldn't doubt if that had turned off a lot of pilots from patching up their G-1s back when they could.
Thank you for your replies. I appreciate each and every one. I decided to pull the trigger on the Cockpit Avenger G-1; I'm going for style for civilian wear. I am an Air Force officer assigned to a "joint base" that also has Navy. So there are some Navy fliers with their seal G-1s walking...
