It’s been a year now, August 2018 that we were in the midst of a new discovery, the Goldsmith A2. A great deal of research and photo analysis was done by a number of people and if you were following the thread , it was impressive the way that small pieces of information were collected, correlated and corroborated and placed into a grand puzzle that soon became the Goldsmith A2 jacket. Eventually Ken from Aero produced a limited number of 25 of the jackets based on the actual contract information that revealed that 25 had been delivered to the military. The jackets were sold and Aero was effectively out of the Goldsmith A2 market. Headwind was on the verge of releasing their interpretation of the Goldsmith A2 jacket and if memory serves me correctly, as of April 2019 had produced 2 test jackets. However despite the hype, the imminent release of their A2 never materialized, and after much hoopla the Goldsmith A2 faded back into the annals of history. I don’t know if any of you are disappointed by any of this, or even care about it, I know I was and that’s why I’m asking the question. If any of you feel the same disappointment post away...
