nice jacket too.
there also some difference between those 3 jackets.
i wonder what utility is the pochet on the left side ; she looks as an incorporated holster ???????
would be great to see a pilot with such a jacket.
one beer to the first one who discover (present) a photo of USAAF (USAAC) pilot wearing one of those jacket.
hope the answer will come from Europe (just regarding the cost of shipping).
byeeeeeee marcel

Interesting similarities between these jackets and early MC jackets. The Hughes from Magnoli is identical apart from the buttons.

The basic style of the jacket is much like my Aero Bootlegger. That front pocket and slash zipper are different on the Army version. Nice jacket; makes me like my Bootlegger a little more. Thanks for the pics.
