    Has anybody bought anything from Nobel House in Germany?

    Hey Corky, I've been sneaking around their "IRVIN" for a little while, tempted by the price just like you. I ended up buying one from ELC as I figured that I will be wearing this for the next (at least) 15 years. I had to pay 30% more compared to the Noble House coat but for the next 15...

    AAF Decal - A2

    NIIIIICCCCE job Nick! I used to do the same stuff - aeons ago... Lived beside a Canadian airbase in Southern Germany and the boys just loved painted leathers. Unfortunatetly I mostly worked for tankers and artillery people but as a 16-year-old kid you don't ask questions who's paying for...

    ALL REPRO R.A.F. Irvin type jackets

    What kind of "The Cockpit" are you referring to? I hope not the German company that has been selling (imported) terrible jacket copies which they've been calling "jackets made to the same specs as originals with - NOW GET THIS: the aid of the original stencils" (unquote). The "Boutique...

    Your first flight jacket

    G-1, size 40, BUAER label, ca. 1952 with a "SIKORSKY ENG. SYST. 1" writing in the back. Picked it up in London about 1988, haggling my little heart out with the paki shop assistant - cost me an arm and a leg (at the time, for a basically shot leather coat). I just LOVED it and only wore...

    F/S: Minty MA-1 Black Label, ca. 1953-'54

    Sorry about the missing pics... Thanks a lot for the hint, Wil...but I am not in the posession of a digital camera (believe it or not, I don't even have a mobile phone or a navigation system for my car). If you folks insist, I can shoot a roll of slide film through my Leica, get them scanned...

    F/S: Minty MA-1 Black Label, ca. 1953-'54

    Hi Gang! Up for sale is a minty MA-1 made by Dobbs (Alpha's predecessor company) around 1953-'54. According to the number it comes out of the third contract. Absolute stunning shape with no visible wear, not even dirt inside the pockets. There is only some damage on one of the cuffs and a...

    REVIEW: B-10 Jacket by PIKE BROTHERS

    Hi all. My Pike Brothers B-10 has arrived. I took some pics, made some notes and - sent it back. Never the less it is, in fact, not bad at all. Especially for somebody who is looking for a reasonable repro without looking at the details too much - which unfortunately excludes myself. The price...

    B-10 Jacket by PIKE BROTHERS

    As I said: it sure doesn't look too bad. Although you are right, the lining sucks. Here's the plan: I do have a pair of original A-9 trousers (medium size; any offers?) to get a good idea about the materials the PIKE-boys used. And if I decide to keep the coat, I will soup it up a bit by by...

    B-10 Jacket by PIKE BROTHERS

    So let's tell them what we want! Hey fletch, thanks for the reply. I am very glad about the Lounge as it is possibly big enough to tell the producers what people like us really want. In my case, I told the guy that I would buy a jacket of him to write about it in the Lounge. And if it...

    B-10 Jacket by PIKE BROTHERS

    Hi all. Next week I should be getting a (mid priced) B-10 repro made by PIKE BROTHERS from Germany. I haven't heard too much about this company but the pictures are promising, especially considering the price whis is about 1/3rd cheaper than ELC. I did exchange some emails with the...
