Up for sale I can today offer a very nice US Army Air Forces “B15″ Type flight jacket. This jacket was part of a larger, estate found WWII US Army Air Forces uniform and equipment lot which consisted of flight helmets, shearling / sheep skin flight gear, comm-gear, etc. All of which had been in storage for years. The “Army Air Forces” insignia is very faded, however still present on the upper left sleeve. The fleece collar is intact, as are the elastic-type cuffs and waist band. The brass zipper works fine and is marked “Talon”. The jacket is a bit faded from age and wear, but remains in overall very good (in my honest opinion), overall condition and would still be quite wearable. I can find no nomenclature tags, however I’d have to say it’s roughly a size 38. There’s only a bit of edge wear at the very edge of the collar, and for the most part, the jacket remains in very good shape overall. If you collect US Army Air Forces gear, or are in the market for a good, wearable vintage flight-type jacket, don’t pass this one up for the price! As there are no labels extant, here are some basic measurements. Width of jacket (armpit to armpit) 23 inches. Shoulder seam to shoulder seam: 20 inches. Sleeve length: 25 1/2 inches. Top of shoulder (on hanger), to bottom of waistband 21 1/2 inches. I hope these measurements will help. I do not, as a rule, post items to China or far eastern European (former Soviet bloc) countries.
