Judging from all the photos of flyers in the 1940's with very long fitting jackets, did they come in long sizes to fit those skinny post-depression, lousy chow, bodies?? I am 6'2" 182 lbs with a 43 inch chest and wear dress shirts with a 34 sleeve. I looked at the measurements of Platon's Dubo. I just cannot fit his jacket. Too short!! I have seen others comment on that regarding Platon's Dubow as well. What did tall guys, thinner than me, do to get get A-2's to fit in the 1940's? Or, maybe it was just that they wore their pants way up over their navels so it didn't matter?
