    Not a bad looking jacket and the price matches that type of jacket.

    Buzz Rickson size 44 A-2 for sale

    If you have John's CD this jacket is on there for you to look at. Being a 44 it is the biggest in the BR line (at that time). Down the front it is 23.5 (along the windflap). Just about 24 pit to pit. 19.25 in the shoulder span. I have a 42 in the same jacket and the difference is the extra inch...

    Brand new Aero D-1 Redskin

    hate to part with this but the temps in CA just don't lend themselves to having this heavy of a jacket. This is brand new got it in late April (too warm to wear) and have worn it once (just last week). So it really is just like new. Size 42 but here are the measurments pit to pit is 24.5...

    1938 Aero from The Few

    I know he is the master. No hot water treatment or breaking in for this jacket just wear. I can never get mine to look like this. Have a BR RW 23380 with Bronco Hide and it is almost six years old and still doesn't look like this and I have worn it to death.

    B-Beautiful in a B-10..! (The ultimate American Beauty cloth flight wear)

    If you want a real B-10 don't bother with the Pike one. It in no way compares to the Buzz or ELC model. Save your money and go with one of them. Had a BR, ELC, and RMJ and each was excellent just didn't like the fit of the B-10 on me and was attracted by other jackets.

    A2's advice needed.

    If I recall on the arms (since I no longer have the jacket) it ran about 25 inches from the shoulder to the end of the knit cuff. This is about prefect for me. Sorry no pictures.

    A2's advice needed.

    Don't worry about turning 40 it is 50 that sucks. Based on your size I would suggest a 42 in ELC jackets. You might be able to get into a 40 but the Werber runs a bit snug. The Star (I had one) is a bit bigger. So you probably could take a 40 in the Star and a 42 in the Werber.

    A2's advice needed.

    James, Great fit on the Werber. That is the way an A2 of that vintage (1930s) should fit. Hey what type of cigar you got? Goes well with the jacket.

    Leather vs. Gore-Tex - Style vs. Function?

    I really like my leather jackets (A2s and G1s) but when it is cold, windy, with a hint of rain I go for my military issue Goretex jackets. The new digtal pattern has a fleece removeable liner which can be worn separately. Very nice very warm and breathable. I also really like the CWU-45 and...
