I am in the market for a G-1 Flight Jacket. It is going to be a memorial to my late fathers naval aviation career. I had planned on doing some nose art on the back of the proposed jacket. The nose art I am considering will be at a considerable expense. A good original would be fine but, the largest sized original military issue seems to be a just adequate size 46. This size for a jacket is just adequate for me and am considering a size 48. This will force me to find a new reproduction jacket. The repro jackets I am currently considering are made by U.S. Authentic Mfg. Co., Gibson and Barnes or Lost Worlds. Of the three decent jackets available which would you pick? Any other ideas out there!
