Rusty,
Get yerself up to Silvermans in the East End, and buy an ex RAF Cold Weather Mk 3 flying jacket. They are excellent, and my old battered one, issued many moons ago, is still giving stalwart service, although the velcro cuffs are wearing a bit thin now,.,,,Deep pockets (For the landing fees) and a hidden hood in the collar. It is possible to buy virtually new ones for a few bob (er.....quids) extra which may/may not still be treated with nomex.
Either that, or spend the extra £80.00 on getting to grips with a new type....
Tailwinds.
