Oh well, credit to BR then, but I am think that this will not sell unless you are a serious collector while you can't get hold of the original?

Problem is that it's not historically accurate as it turns out. The ID jackets worn by ground/line crew were of a different design. This is another one of these jackets where BR take a jacket (in this case a L-2 kind of one) they already make and just make it in a different coloured fabric and then say it's something it's not.

They did it twice last year so I suppose we shouldn't really be surprised.

I wonder who their production manager(s) is.....

Good old Avirex, legendary historical accuracy as usual. Note eyelets on the collar straps again.

This is Avirex from Japan, it is not american. They bought name of the brand from Clyman family. Horrible!!
