    ELMC's new line …

    Hi guys, Just got a notification of the new line of ELMC products … I had a look at a "murse" (which struck me as an odd choice to include in the line up) … and nearly sprayed my monitor with coffee when I saw the price. http://www.elmc.co/dont-eat-yellow-snow-us-army-shldr-bag-p-172.html...

    My new Buzz Rickson L2-A

    Hi guys, So at last, a couple of months later than I'd hoped, I can present my latest addition: my new Buzz Rickson L2-A. This is what happens when you watch The Hunters! (Ker-Ching!) I apologise for the photos - especially after the recent thread with various opinions on how best to take...

    Your winter season forecast for 2014/2015: BRRRRRRR!!!!!

    Last year I saw the Farmer's Almanac forecast for the winter and posted it here - and indeed, as we all now know, the forecast was completely accurate and it was BRUTAL !!! Winter is my favourite season, and even I was glad to finally see the back of it …! I hate to say it, but it looks like...

    Dieppe Uncovered

    G'day everyone ... Thought I'd let you know that, as part of the War And Remembrance programming on the TV over the weekend, I saw an amazing documentary entitled "Dieppe Uncovered" - and it's well worth a watch to anyone interested in WW2. It details the lengthy research undertaken by a...

    My new (old) ELC RW B-6

    So at last, I can present my new (old) ELC RW B-6 to you all … I’d had an ELC B-6 (in seal brown) some years ago, but it was a size 40 and was a titch too tight on the chest for me, and so it was moved on – but I always thought I’d like another but in a size 42, just like my ELC RW B-3, so I...

    PETA vs. People who love their leather jackets - and how it went so wrong for PETA.

    Here's a story in the media that you all may not have seen - and will be your laugh of the day. So get this: 5 members of PETA realised that there was going to be a gathering of a particular demographic of the general public that needed to be taught the error of their unethical ways - namely...

    Your long range weather forecast: COLD

    Good day all, Just saw this news item - and I see that the latest Farmer's Almanac long-range weather forecast for the US and Canada is out and the Winter forecast is: COLD - and, in my 17 years of experience up here, I'd say that it's about 80% accurate on average - sometimes 100% which is...

    A brilliant repair by Alexander Leathers

    So having mentioned this in the current thread on AL, I am finally spurred on to putting this together (don't tell the boss - should be working!) before someone says "Pics - or it didn't happen!". Oh, did it ever! So it was the first week of winter last - and I reached for my trusty and...

    Is more than one A2 being a bit excessive?

    Good day everyone, I seem to have a bit of a moral dilemma and thought I'd share it for opinions. I have an Aero ANJ-3 in seal brown which I'm very glad to have in my small collection (B3, Irvin, Luftwaffe and a couple of C3s) and it rounds out my seasonal wear very nicely. But since a copy...

    Does anyone remember the Biggles movie coat ?

    Hello everyone, I bring this question from another thread where I mentioned that I don't think that, as much as I like them, a "duster" type of coat suits me due to my 5'8" height and regular frame - and I mentioned that the only long motoring-style coat that I ever saw and hankered for was the...

    Can anyone please recommend further reference books ?

    Good day all, Just coming from another thread that's straying slightly off-topic but it's raised a great point about something I've wanted to ask for a while ... I have the Art Of The Flying Jacket book by Jon Maguire and it's been indispensable to me and worth every cent. It's shown me so...

    My Aero ANJ-3

    Hi everyone, This is my first post, so I hope it passes everyone’s muster … This is my latest addition that I hope you all might like to see – my Aero ANJ-3. Having had a couple of A2's before and finding myself in the market for another jacket, I wanted one after I’d done some research on...
