You can always make something up.
The only one who's ever commented on a flight jacket I was wearing turned out to be a B-24 flight crew member!
I wish I hadn't been focused on a mission for my wife at that moment -- I'd have asked the gentleman out for a beer.
Regrets, I've had a few.

This was designed especially for the 1934 flight and was seen on each plane and on aircrew jackets. It was worn proudly long after by these crews. This flight was made with Martin B-10 from Washington to Alaska, mainly over un-mapped territories in Canada and Alaska.

Unpressurised, open cockpit!
Pretty impressive indeed.

Definitely an A-2 for me.
Looks like Grow, the Flight Surgeon and he had an A-2 for sure.

They weren’t pressurised, but by 1934 they did have enclosed cockpits. Can’t have been warm though.

The top glass slid forward. Took a Google dive. It was open in the pic... Unusual looking aircraft!

Red will be egalized and varnish will make colors brighter, result will be very nice

Yessir. This will go on the Werber and my Air Apaches patch will on the Bronco.

When finished, I'll post a picture along Jerome's Werber in order you can see the contrasts.
