Hey all;

Could one of you VB guys or girls please tell me where the pilot's leather jackets are made?? (and by whom??). Interested in getting something similar!

Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about the VB jackets but the company that makes the RAAFs leather flying jacket is called Babylon Industries (http://www.babylon.com.au). I'm not sure how much the jackets are at the moment but when a group I was involved with got 30 of them in '99 they cost $330. For one off orders you can probably tack on 25-30% (at least!).

John Kashro is the man to talk to about it and his contact details are on the web site. You can have the velcro on or off, you can have the epaulettes sewn down or velcroed down, and so on.

Hope that helps.

Regards,
