Flying Suit
Hi Guys.
I've been looking everywhere for a new flying suit but I can't seem to find one. I'm after an RAF Flying Suit MK16A or MK14A (Olive Green) in a size 3... a size 4 will do as a last resort. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers Arron. |
Ebay.....
Lots of ex-military surplus flying suits there. A new one will cost you £££££:{ |
Been looking on there daily, no size 3's :(

military mart aviation, cant remember the webiste address. thats two possibles... I'm surprised they make a size 3? Smallest I saw at the VGS unit I was once at was a size 5. |
Mart haven't got any 3's in stock, closets they have is 2 and 5.
RAF Flying suits start at size 1, i've got a 2 atm and that is too small, need a size bigger. Thanks mate. Arron |
...Or become a staff cadet on a VGS and you will be issued one from stores, without having to pay hard cash.

I was planning to do a few months ago when I got my Silver wings, however my local VGS is being moved, and the nearest AEF is too far way to become flight staff there

Get yourself a proper desert camoflage/khaki/non-pink nomex suit from a well known site on the internet. You'll look nearly as good as me. :ok:

and there I was thinking the "P" was acronym for "Professional" |
Except you're in the Private forum.
Lighten up son, you'll live longer that way ;) Waaaay back when I were an instructor one of my colleagues launched a campaign to get the school owners to introduce baby-grows for us. Nobody wanted them least of all the CFI and bosses who were all ex-military. His suit hung on the back of his office door for months then mysteriously disappeared after a heavy night at the aero club when the sleeves and legs of his suit may have become sewn shut and filled with uncooked rice :E |
And the forum is private flying.
Don't worry when I am shooting the ILS tomorrow with unsuspecting passengers down the back I will pretend to be a grown up. |
