I fly with a dad and am responsible for duties up to and including stating "gear is up" in his 1968 V-tail Bonanza lol. We fly under 12.5k ft. Not a pilot. I don't think I can legally pilot due to anxiety disorder. But I study aviation and just love it-except for turbulence and jet wake. Hats off to you. Yes, it gets very hot, the sun seems to really cook off the cockpit. I'd say just wear it and savor the color change you earned while flying! You can always carefully re-dye in the years ahead. I'll tell you, closed cockpit general aviation is not the best situation for an A-2. It gets wicked hot here.

Thx for asking: Price incl. shipping to china 700 Euro.Feel free to contact me with your order...
So far we only specialized in this so called Hartmann jacket...our aim is to be as original as possible by using not only the original pattern/cuts, but also liner and metalware ( so far no others do use original metalware).Please compare details with all others you know.
Later we will reproduce all issued ww2 Luftwaffe flight jacket...the next one in the pipe is the so called Reichsdefence jacket...the leather version...Pattern are already cut...test jackets will be ready soon....photo above of our original.

Of course you can and we will see what can be done.
Special measurements will take approx 6-8 weeks after cleared payment.
However, I am certain we have what you need in our ex-stock jackets...( see photos)...
The first launch was foreseen for China/Asia/Japan....besides all original jackets were made for quite smaller frames as per our todays standards, hence our jackets will not look “ baggy” especially in the waist area.

Are they made in Pakistan/India or Europe? The collars are very pointy.

I understand now that your enthusiasm for this jacket is based on your own connection to this enterprise.
