Hello, I'm new here, quickly becoming more of an obsession than a recreation. I have an A2 in the mail, so right now the only leather flight jacket I have is one that was handed down to me by my father. The tag is missing, but from reading this thread: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=12434 , It would appear to be an Imperial as per this quote from Atticus -- "Here's the Imperial Leather G-1. It is totally stiff, heavy, squeaky cowhide. When you wear it, people can hear you coming five minutes before you arrive. You sound like a flock of seagulls diving on a school of mackerel" it seems identical. Its in great shape too, probably from the late 70's as thats when my Father was Aircrew in the Navy. Its in great shape.. My fiance wanted me to ditch it a couple years ago, and Im SO glad I held on.
