MASTERS OF THE AIR

[CBI]

Surprised to see no thread about this Spielberg/Hanks series. Part three of a Band of Brothers, The Pacific trilogy of sorts. Flight jackets and all WW2 clothes/gear have a huge part in this series. Its on AppleTV and not to be missed.

Looks good. Those Irvins really superb as the lads themselves are awesome heroic.

The sheepskin jackets are B-3's. Irvins are great jackets but were RAF kit. This is a great series. Check out Eastman Leather website to see all of the jackets they made for the series. Also Aero Leather Scotland for John Egan's "white" B-3.

I saw that albino maverick. Thanks for the Eastie tip mate. I almost tendered offer for ''Dick Winters'' A2 worn BoB Years ago.

I was wondering: what happens to all those jackets after filming? Are they all stored in a warehouse in hollywood or will they flood the 2nd-hand market?

Consigned back to manufacturer or cast kept souvenirs.
I had considered buying the A2 worn by Winters in BoB Eastman public offer but passed.
Nixon's hawked also.
Pearl Harbor's fabulous wear with squadron patches were availed earlier.
