That's a good looking jacket. I would make the collar smaller but it's just my personal view. I have a thing about collars. What's it lined with ?

The chest zip seems positioned a little too high? Also is this angled zip correct for this style of jacket, as it reminds me more of an American jacket, esp with that chain puller?

I think Peter's aversion to large collars must come from growing up in the 70's, like me. But, as the owner of a Buzz Dubow, I may have been cured of this discophobia...perhaps you should try one, Peter.

I'm working on another one right now that's a little closer to the Hartman Eastman version (one piece back, two piece arms, hand pockets) I'm going to make it a little shorter and make the collar a bit smaller- might tighten the arms up a bit too. This is the kind of thing that makes it fun...

Try and have a look the various designs of jackets worn by Luftwaffe pilots; would be good to have pockets arranged accurately but differently from those found on ELC's jackets...you could even offer a variety of slightly different jackets appealing to the individuals out there.
