To all of you posting their beautiful jackets with smiling faces and beautiful scenic views.

I haven’t left this shit hole house in 15 day’s and my wife is ready to throat punch me!!!
HELP!!!!

Burt i'm with you!

Just pretend you wanna help her in the household and drop some plates when removing them from the dishwasher will make her ban you outta the kitchen and you are free to roam around the house ...

No joke - i'm happy we own a relatively large garden - already pressure-washed the paving in the garden - now repainting the garden-furniture only to get outta each others way ...

Anyway - still i do not miss that much the "normal life" coz as pet-owner you are free to take a walk with your Dogs so i get to the forrest each day which at least gives an Impression of beeing kinda "free".

Thumbs up for all members which own an appartment without any Chance for leaving it

To everyone around here stay safe!

ELC 23rd fighter group A-2 this afternoon.

 

[Micawber]

Frosty but bright this morning so put the ATF tanker on but it soon warmed up enough to do this...

...and stuck to shirtsleeves working outside for the rest of the day.

I can't believe the number of people traipsing about around off the public footpaths and rights of way. Bloody countryside is inundated with people who think their one period of daily exercise gives them the right to wander about just where they like - it does not [in England that is].

People and kids huddled in groups, chatting loudly without a care in the world clad in bright man made fabrics, leggings and trainers - get orfff my land and get back indoors! 'Kin eejits.

Happy guy. I have not seen my plane for 10 days.

I feel ya. The company I work for normally has roughly 21 pilots on the roster and sends out 5-6 planes daily and now we’re down to about 6 pilots with only 1 flight a day (with fewer legs too). I’m sure they’re feeling much the same.

ELC A2 at home quarantin with pic of a beginning growing beard ( asked by Greg ), with hope and praying next week to return to our decreased flock.

Is that a Chuck Yeager signed X-1? Cool.

Yes, Chuck signed. This model was on my table for a long time on a stand, then I made by myself special wall mount for this X-1 and since then Glamorous Glennis on the wall.

Nice day for a hike and some social distancing with the 1980 Gibraltar Tanker jacket.

Fun fact in case anyone doesn't know already.... Yeager wore a Monarch A-2 that is in the Smithsonian.

Finally some photos! looks great! You happy with the patches and leather feeling?? Can you send me a closed up photo of the tiger patch? I just wanna compare it to mine. Thanks!

 

[s4rmark]

Will do Serghei. Yes I’m very happy with this one. The patches are all good , no split ends etc. The leather was very “creaky” at first but it’s breaking in nicely now.

 

[bazelot]

Got a sniffle so working from home. Still unpacking.

Vic's ELC Monarch... loose again? Not for long I would imagine.

How are the patches? Quality control has been an issue of late.
