I'm interested in your Bill Kelso Aero in size 36 but I wonder if it would fit me. I am 5'8 and 150 lbs and wear size 36 reg suit jackets. But sized up to 38 for my Aero Bronco A2 so I wonder how the BK fits. Thanks.

Hi, Sorry for the late reply. I am afraid but I think the jacket is too short for you.

Thanks anyway!

Bill- I saw you were looking for a larger size Branded/Orchard A-2. I have a new & unused 44R, if it's what you need. Jim

Kiwi based in the beautiful South Island, strong interest in WW2 Militaria specifically WW2 RAF, RNZAF. Keen to connect with other collectors.

If the B-2 is still available, could you tell me the back measurement?
I live in New Jersey, so a domestic sale. I have wanted one of these for a while.
Thanks,

Hi Foster,

I appreciate the like! The fact that Victor's Switlik jacket turned out to be contrived was definitely a let down for me.
Cheers, Dave

It was for me too, I wanted it to be real!

Hi Thomas.

A bit off topic but I had a question about the ratchet buckles used on the deck jackets. I have a similar jacket that has a broken buckle and was wondering where I could find a replacement. I do live in the United States though and your in Germany. That may complicate things.

Thanks.

H,
I appreciated the like! This never before known info generally received through much time & effort blows right by most.

Having done a bit of research in records offices myself (not about government contracts I admit) your dedication to piecing together what would've been simply ordinary knowledge back in the day deserves recognising. I'll need to save a few pennies for a repro of yours but I like the look of it. What's your order time and do you plan on getting a website up and running?
Happy Christmas

Hi Phil,

For the M-422 I've already got the books earmarked that contain the info both the Switlik and W&G M-422 jackets. It is just a matter of getting back to the Archives in Washington DE and a 8 hour round trip from my residence. Until my next trip it is still a toss up as to the first M-422 maker.

Right now I'm 6 to 7 months behind.

Cheers, Dave

I've been a member for a while but not posted anything. I'm taking this opportunity to say hello to all members while I think of something to write about. For now I'm enjoying trawling through the forums looking at stuff. Goodnight to all from a cold, wet, slightly foggy London evening.
