No news on the Air Comfort?
If we ever catch up Trev i'd love to try on your RM- is that Greyhounds?

Andrew..

This sounds like a plan. Hoping to take December and January off before the Townsville move. Will certainly be doing the Gold Coast and Beewah again. Posting order is out and assumption is 3 years at this stage. Last three postings have been 24 months, 24 months and 12 months. And the jacket is/was Greyhounds. I enjoy smelling it more than wearing it!!

I own 6 repro's which I bought through VLJ and Ebay. Some of you fellow members might recognize some of these jackets as your former belonging.

1) ELC House, size 38. Very soft and supple steerhide. Very comfortable jacket.

2) OLD ELC house, thick but supple steerhide. 506 PIR patch. In use for reenactment.

3) ELC RW 1401P, with original 82nd AB Patch. quite heavy supple HH. About 4 jears old.

4) Aero Anniversary 42-15142P. Thick, supple HH. I Like the reddish undertone.

5) Aero JerkyHH 38-1711P. As mentioned. Jerky/grainy HH. With silk lining.

The RW looks great Paddy. Here are some picks of it when Steve first bought it from GW last summer. So you are the third owner Paddy.

Oh no, it's not the jacket! Rimshot. :p Looks great on you Paddy. That is one beautiful jacket, I remember when Cobblers first posted photos of it.

My humble collection of A-2s.

Good Wear RW 27752. May be a close cousin of Paddy's jacket, made around the same time I believe.

The FEW '33 Werber. Timeworn by Bevan. Patch by CBI not attached yet, girlfriend vehemently against it, I think it looks damn cool.

Good Wear 18246-P. This one I need to post some photos of me wearing. I love everything about this jacket but I'm on the fence as far as the cut and fit. May need some opinions.
