Completely agree about John's ability to shape a collar. It was true from the first jacket I bought from him in 2009. One reason I hesitate to buy from other manufacturers.Tasty Shinki 27752 today. I actually am partial to the Army Air Forces roundrel. Maybe not on every jacket, but it’s a cool touch. The one thing John does nicely are his collars. ELCs need all kinds of shaping to look legit.

...or rather what jacket were you wearing around this time 23 years ago?
Mrs Micawber, Master Micawber [age a few months] and a 40 something me in PA while staying with veteran friends after attending a 91st BGMA reunion. I came across this photo this afternoon while looking for something else. No idea what the A2 jacket was. I still have the cap which proved to be a useful way for vets to ID me and Master Micawber still has that triangle A cap that was specially made for him. Fun and informative times with friends now long gone.

Steve, what a cool, warm photo clearly taken with a film camera before the soulless digital age!
Yesterday day was there and with the same ones, among the restorers, now crazy heat return back here and any jackets go to the closet.
With one of my favorite Yak-38 aircraft, now this bird finally ready for painting and will probably be painted by the end of summer or so.
So Dmitry your new job is model?
You look absolutely classy in your gear ...
