Aviation Leathercraft Aircrew Jacket - any wearers on here?

Any one on here uses this or their company / organisation been supplied with one? I own one and use it occasionally when in winter for flying.

I've had that model since the late 1990s. It's very warm in summer but a bit chilly in winter. The pockets are good (5) but in the wrong sort of place to be 'useful'.

I prefer the "RAF" cold weather jacket which I find more all season.

Redeye02 has another one of the leathercraft products which he swears by for any time of year but it lacks the pockets which I value.

I have the 'Tornado' jacket by the same company (https://www.flying-jacket.com/jacket...ket-type-2502/). Good heavy weight leather with plenty of pockets, but sadly I don't get much use from it these days.
