40.- bucks? That's a steal!
For me the most practical piece of garment - better than the N1
Which size?

It’s in the 40’s c here with the humidity. No, I haven’t lost my faculties, but I just got my gw bronco back from Steve replacing the knits. Couldn’t be happier. Excellent job and lighting fast. Now off to the closet and the air conditioning
What kind of knits did you go with, GW, MASH, eBay offering, etc.?

I had jc supply them. He’s so impressed with his latest knits I figured that’s the safest bet. If he’s impressed, I m satisfied. That makes all 3 of my gw’s with them now.

it was a real scorcher and hats off to the reenactors who posed in A-2s.
but to go along with the theme of this thread, here is a reenactor in front of his trusty Pony....

This Saturday was the annual "Fly-In" BBQ of the French Wing of the Commemorative Air Force. A good opportunity to reunite with friends, have a drink (or a few), enjoy a nice 40's concert, see some great machines up close and take some of the gear out of the closet as vintage dressing is encouraged. Even had the luck to do a flight on board a Piper J-3, and so did the missus.
So, as far as jacket was concerned, I decided to go as a 9th Air Force pilot and get the good ol' Aero Leather 42-18775-P to match. And before any of you jump in, I know, I stupidly reversed the ranks and the collar device on my shirt...
I usually say, to people complaining about how they look on pictures, that "It's just a camera, not a magic box". Seems that having a professional photographer behind the lens can really turn it in a magic box!!
