FLYING JACKET.

[James]

Wanting a tough winter jacket to wear with the kilt, I took a punt on a leather one as supplied by Fort Apache here in the UK [They are sourced from the USA] and are made to the original specifications of the American, Army Air Corps.

I mention this to say that it works well with a traditional kilt, and should stand anything the British weather can offer: plus rough use.

In appearance with the kilt it is akin the British Battle Dress blouse-albeit leather.

My camera use is very and I mean very, limited to the type one puts film in--and then a year or two later has it developed.

Very sharp jackets! If you're going for a leather jacket that's to wear with a kilt, the bomber style with an elastisized waist is definitely the way to go.

The jacket in my tri color kilt pics in my gallery is a War 2 reproduction from www.gibson-barnes.com they offer many military, police, and motorcycle type short jackets...top quality and price to match.

James, just buy a disposable camera, take the pics, and when you turn it in for developing ask for a disc as well. Then pop the disc in your computer and share the pics...easy...even for a besotted old mind like mine.
