    Original flying jackets and their story

    Splinters new old Irvin got me thinking about original jackets and their story. Have many of you followed through maybe a name and service number written in one of your finds and found a great story and if so, how about sharing it? Photos would be much appreciated too. Garry

    How many new jackets do you have coming (and how many potential ones)?

    Thanks Ton. It's my driving jacket when I'm out in the MG. that big collar is a lifesaver when the wind comes over the windscreen and curls back into the cockpit. I'll do a B6 specific thread when I have time. Like SpeedRcrX mentioned, there ain't too many reviews on here.

    Birks Rideau

    Thanks for the response and info Viclip. I have had the watch serviced already and it's keeping great time. I did notice the minute register only counts to 45 minutes, is there any reason for this or am I missing something obvious? I seem to be lucky enough to have a family who bought...
