Ultravox (feat. Midge Ure. He of Live Aid fame) - well, they were famous then! And they still sound great to me.
From their Reap The Wild Wind video, 1982 - a homage to the RFC and RAF.

Natalie Portman "Leon"

I realize that Portman wasn't quite "of age" yet when she starred in that film, but nevertheless it's a good example of how women seem to look better in those puffy jackets than men (c.f. that pic of Kayne West posted in the previous page).

Alpha have certainly gotten a lot of mileage out of that shot of Marilyn in that B15C.... nobody mention thatthey never supplied those to the USAF, eh?

That's probably the most iconic photo of the B-15C.

It also shows how short these jackets were supposed to fit, even on Marilyn in her large sized borrowed one, it's not what you would call a long fitting.
