Thanks for that Guppy. I had recently decided to look into some more safety gear for flying. When my research came up with the possible problems of leather jackets, I was wondering what would replace my leather jacket.
I had looked at some of the nomex clothing and decided they were unaceptable for my use. Around the farm I need something to wear that is warm in winter, can handle the knocks and bumps of daily work, and yet be wearable in the aircraft. For example, I can be working on a farm machine and then jump into the plane to go get a part - I didnt think the nomex garmets would stand up to it.
