Had a look at the Schott 618 today. Probably one of the best jackets I own. Indestructable.

Should we keep fingers crossed for more shearling WX?. Here's a little motivation...
Oh no no no no, that footage is from the recent Spitfire documentary and I much prefer the original soundtrack, the simplicity of which touched my soul when I saw it in the cinema and still does...

+2 c this morning when I went for a nice nearly 2 hr social distance walk along the river with a friend
Wore the noble house b3 as there was a slight breeze that coming off the snow and ice made
It feel chiller.

I must admit, I like Spitfires and Hurricanes in any form of müßig, but the Merlin engine sound will always IT!

Tell you what I noticed about that B-10, something that you may notice in my photos, the sleeve lining is somewhat too long which causes it to bunch up around the lower portion of the shell and cuff when worn. I'm going to pull the lining up from the cuffs and put a couple of tack stiches in at the elbow to suspend it at that point.
Edited to add a couple of loose suspension stitches at each inner elbow did the trick. No more saggy bottom sleeves

Sleeve length is ok, the lining length is actually the issue.

I was out in the vinyards this morning, it's bud break time and there's need for vine training. Returning for lunch I found an old friend stowed away in the old travel bag. A Gibson&Barnes M-422A I got off the sales rack years ago, hence the WW2 VF-3 FELIX patch with the nametag of Major Floyd B. Parks, USMC, VMF 221, of Battle for Midway distinction. None of my doing, but I will not bother to change it. Underneath an even older sweatshirt from when Miramar was still (I mean intermittently) a Naval Air Station. Gloves are ELC Navy Flyers Gloves.

Jorge, that's a great and comfy looking jacket. And while I am not a patrol community fan boy (friendly ribbing) it is a very cool patch. Hey, PBR, should be called champaign
