X-2 - The A-2 Pre Contract Test Jacket by Headwind Mfg Co

I have been hammering out the details on this jacket since the Goldsmith project started. I have had the guys start to put this one together recently, as we have a little room in our R&D department after nailing down the designs of the Aviatrix, High Hats, and Goldsmith jackets. Details: 1...

Do you mind if I ask what size jacket you wear?

I wear a size 44 but would most likely go 46 if I order the Goldsmith
I am 6ft 173 lbs

Shame, I have a 48 that I’ve only worn a couple of times and would sell at a reasonable price. Do you know your measurements by chance?

Thanks but a 48 would definitely be too big for me
Would still love to see picture though

 

[B-Man2]

Sure Will do.
I’ll post some for you by tomorrow

Well ,happily an opportunity arose last night and I will be acquiring what I will describe as my Holy Grail SAT A2 .
It is a repro and should arrive sometime in Oct.
That's all I have to say for now but I will post pictures etc. in the Review section once I have it.
Thank you to everyone that has contributed to this thread both publicly and privately, it has been a real SAT A2 learning experience.
Much appreciated !!

I might be interested as Jay hasn't been in communication for some time...

Ok let me know if you need anything from my end .

Is Headwind still going or are they kaput?

 

[mulceber]

I'm wondering that as well. The website is still going, but no news since...April? And Jay was apparently struggling to maintain basic operations even before COVID.

GW has updated their pattern for the SAT A-2, FYI.

 

[fleet16b]

Yes , I am aware
