Billy Zane's best performance was in Dead Calm! Also one of Nicole Kidman's best.

So, wonder where Liam's MacArthur A2 was 'TAKEN' this time?

 

[Justhandguns]

Well, ok, another one here. Our beloved Harry Potter is now undercover FBI with his MA-1 this time. Not that we want to associate this with skinheads anymore...... Movie-wise, might be a good one.

Schott X American College. I have one in black. Wish I would have snagged a navy as well.

Thanks for the i.d., man. I was wondering what brand that jacket was. I had originally assumed Alpha, since they have some slim fit jackets which are similar.

No problem. And yeah, it's pretty slim fitting. I have my black in a large, but if would have picked up a navy one I may have sized up to an XL. The forearms are very snug if I'm wearing a thin sweater underneath.

Here's a thing. An actual famous person in an actual flight jacket.

Alain Delon. I like him more than Bradley Cooper, but I would never say he is or was more famous. He was in some good movies though.

Not a criticism, but, could you identify these celebrities so some of us can look them up? A while back you did just that and I looked the man up, turned out he was a very accomplished young man! This guy may be the same? I'm not stuck in the mud, I am open to new experiences in my life! Thanks.

 

[theundeadkennedy]

This particular celebrity is Bradley Cooper.

Yeah, I don't recognise most of those under 50. I stopped going to the movies many years ago but I see the odd thing on Netflix.

I think you found the answer with the last pic Trenchy. That's pigskin isn't it ?

How about a famous person, Richard Boone/Paladin, in a [35 years before the age of] flight jacket?

^ holy carp, that's an awesome collection of details

I just watched The Thousand Plane Raid for the first time, actually enjoyed it. Not unlike 12 O'cock High, but in colour.
Fantastic original A-2 jackets. So this is Christopher George as Col Greg Brandon.
Looks like a Roughwear... Any opinions.
