Seen an MA-1 for sale, Alpha, looks pukka, size xl on a mil label.
Got me wondering if there is a book that deals specifically with nylon flight jackets ?
MA-1's started with a green lining and ended with one. Were they still being issued as late as 1985 ? How long were the orange lining years ? Who made which contract ? I have been told only issued to ground crew after the nomex cwu came in .
