Very nice jackets.

Steve, for a small consideration, i might be able to edit my post to remove my question .....
nice collection. I only have an International myself. My son nicked my old Solway...

You look pretty dapper there Steve!!
Are they the “Moleskins” ???

Sure are. heavy brushed cotton, surface feels sort of velvety. Standard winter wear for old country boys like me ...as is the rest of the garb in the photo.

The beard is coming along nicely Steve ! You & me will both be competing for the same Santa Claus gig this winter

It's usually stupidly long this time of year but I've trimmed it back hard the past few months. You missed out on the handelabar years - they were always good for a laugh!

Thought it's be cool to see not all originals had a ton of grainy horsehide. This Cable has kind of smooth front, and some nice grain to the back. It's crazy how Cable's are some of the most comfortable fitting A-2's

Double-whammy, wore this today and also so I could take some snaps for Thomas.

Aero Barnstormer in brown CXL FQHH with cotton drill lining.

More photos of it for those who are interested in the thread in the repro section.

Undecided today...
Or something completely different?

Thanks. It's a roomy size 42 that I've had it a couple years now. I'm not big on research, but was told the original owner was a big wheel who commanded a bomb group. One of these days I'll do some digging and see what I come up with.

knowing the history makes it super cool mate and I agree with the cables being a bit blousy, my Eastman cable in a 42 but goat only feels comfortable when I’ve got a hoody underneath... not nearly as nice as yours

Is this a new one?

Nope, bought it in 2013.

I'll probably get run off the forum for this but I have to say that my Missus gets a bit iffy when I ask her to take a photo of me so that I can post it up on an online forum for other guys to critique which goes some way to explain why I don't make a habit of doing so. I'll probably also get chastised for not appearing clad in this or that flight jacket. What the hell.

Well I know what you are talking about ...

My wife also gets that “specific” look in her eyes when I ask her to take piccies which I wanna share with a bunch of other blokes on a forum.

But since I allowed her to watch “over my shoulders” when I typed a message she’s ok - although once in a while there is that suspicious look again

Finally some real leather weather! 49° when I got up this morning and supposed to only top out to 68° And sunny this afternoon so a bit borderline later but for now I get to wear my 42–1401P roughwear by ELC . Have a great Thursday...

A bit colder today, so went with the "new" G-1... not the coolest jacket, but very practical and comfortable...

 

[Earloffunk]

Today my father wore his Lost Worlds G-1 (he hardly wears it) to the office and I thought I might take a picture of it with me inside(of course in the wash room...) as we have the same size. It is a nice one. Very heavy but buttery soft. Now its back to my Aero Bronco. But: G-1s rock!

 

[Griffon_301]

And another G-1 wearer here today as well....

Nice...

I am lovin' the ELC leather zipper pulls now.. Much better than the 'forever' loose leather strip ties.
