For what it’s worth, I would not knock your 7823E and you patched it up nicely. I have one too, I picked it up cheap years ago and I still have it as a beater and really to let one or both of my kids abuse it when they fit into it. It’s still an official issued jacket and the aircrew still earned it/wore it. Of course, I joined this forum with only an interest in early G-1s and now…Bill-Bros 7823-D, 1968.
Sorry, not a replica JC
It was the G-1 that made me fall in love with this jacket again after my unfortunate experience with a G-1 7823-E (my post above).
I'm putting a sepia photo because of course a JC creation will always be more beautiful on this forum than an original!
(It's a joke, I love JC art)
BTW, is that a Cub you fly? Am in a Luscombe.
