Wore the Pike Bros N-1 yesterday, and if I can get a chance, I'll ask the wife to take a shot of me in the new Aero A-2. She hates doing it so might be later on, but I'll try!

Thank you very much for the compliment!

Credit for selecting that very jacket for me must go to Rob from ELC though as several years ago I wrote to him that I wanted to pick up a BoB Irvin at their stall at Duxford Flying Legends and this is the jacket he came up with...apart from the small plasticky bit at the bottom of the zip and the zip itsel being a RiRi this jacket is awesome...

It's a size 46 compared to my 1942 pattern Irvin (which is a 44) and therefor has that more loose fit that you guys seem to prefer

Chilly, frosty morning. Back from a long walk with a couple of the dogs.

The loose fit definitely adds to the authentic look and period correct fit for the Irvin IMO.

You virtually never see photos of an airman wearing a close fitting Irvin and for good reason.

Is that a Buzz? Or another maker?

 

[OperationCoffee]

Oh crap I didn't notice the toilet water is yellow. That was from cleaning up after my dog. Not mine...

 

[OperationCoffee]

Yeah it's a Buzz. All my Nylons are Buzz except for the vintage ones. Probably have over a dozen

Didn't notice till you pointed it out ... lol!

You are a lucky man having a dog that will use the toilet, mine just squat on the grass or cock a leg outside

If it's yellow, let it mellow. If it's brown, flush it down.

Saving water, innit.
