Thanks fedoralover. I pretty much reside here and visit the VLJ forum. I thought that I saw a post that you were looking to get the Dubow repro from John to complement the Aero you currently own (which btw is a fantastic looking jacket). I tend to be a "one A-2" kinda guy, but I too am a bit obsessive compulsive about the look and fit. I was about to re-order from Aero to replace a jacket I sold (not so good fit), but I'm seriously considering the 21996 from John.fedoralover said:Mike, I don't know if you visit here or saw the link in another thread, but here's a review by another self admitted obsessive compulsive A-2 lover about his Aero John made for him. BTW, love the avatar, I like the safari look.

As for the avatar, that's my daily look (I'm an Audubon Society warden/biologist). My life is a safari; however, I suffer from a split personality of sorts. I love & collect both the old safari gear and the WWII aviation gear. This year I took all the safari-related apparel to the Fedora Lounge event on the Queen Mary, next year I'll probably go with all my Army Air Corps stuff.
Cheers!
