A very good new G-1 Leather Navy Flight Jacket is
available from Airborne Leathers via inet mail order
.
The quality is good and the price is very reasonable
The G-1 is quite heavy. I prefer and bought the A-2
.

.
PS: I understand that there may be one available from
an individual in MA complete with CosDiv13 patch. Only
slightly used
.

I found the Airborne Leather webpage and the A2 jacket look nice - espacially for $98! I emailed the customer service address on the web page to ask a question about sizing and my email bounced. There is no phone number listed on the web page. Has anyone bought from them and if so, any chance you have a phone number?

Thanks,
John

Get a copy of flight history or something like that. They have ads for your jacket. The magazine might be called aviation history, or WWII or . . .

Any number of aviation magazines have those ads.

I think they are the same company that advertises in Naval Institute Proceedings and Naval History Magazine.

Thanks folks for leads. I will check those magazines.

Found the 800 number for Airborne Leather and will phone them later today.

Thanks,

I have a real one that is in passable shape. Also have all the patches (some original). It's lost it's luster after recent events.

I too have a Navy flight jacket, handed down by my father. He first wore it in 1955 when he commanded VF-52 in the Korean War. It now has Swift patches but hangs in the closet, the image tarnished by past events.
