The last of the summer flying jackets, made in 1962. These jackets were designed to complement the summer flying suits, and are essentially the same design but cutdown. Remarkably light cotton makes them perfect for summer use, especially in the warm climates of Southeast Asia where these would have seen use in the Gulf of Tonkin.
Condition
Mint condition, used but absolutely perfect. Signs of a removed name patch is the only flaw.
