                  HI, here is my electrically wired flight suit.
                  This suit is heavily worn but overall in a
                  passable condition.
                  This suit with the whole equipment comes from an
                  Leutnant of Aufklärungsgruppe 122.
                  Hope you'll like it.
                  Best regards,
                  Alec

                      Hi Andy,

                      thanks for your reply!
                      I'm glad that you like my setup.
                      Lastly I added a Flight Helmet LKpW 101
                      and a Dienstglas Binocular 10x50.
                      So i'm finished with this Setup, but I
                      started with a new one.
                      A white Channel Jacket, with a bit equipment
                      but there is a lot missing.
                      Hope you'll like it!

                      Regards Alec

                        Hello Alec,

                        I also really liked. Very nice addition is the binoculars for Aufklerungs units.

                        Here is my winter sheepskin jacket.

                        Best regards,
                        Sergey

                          Hi Sergey,

                          glad that you also like my Setups.
                          You have also a very nice mid- to late war
                          Channel Jacket with this very nice winter
                          fur hat.
                          That would also fit great to my white Channel
                          Jacket.

                          Regards Alec

                              recently sold flight jacket

                              Description:
                              G9535.)LUFTWAFFE BLACK LEATHER FLIGHT JACKET: absolutely genuine LW pilot's leather jacket, completely original and in a great state of preservation. As George Petersen has told us, most of these leather flight jackets were private purchase garments and few have any standard features at all...there are many varieties and variations. Without a doubt this is a fighter pilot's jacket as high altitude bomber crews wore fleece and heavier fur lined jackets, zip-up flight suits. This jacket has a functioning zipper at front and zippered slash pocket at chest. There are two slash pockets at sides. At waist there are three snap buttons for adjusting fit. On shoulders are the original shoulder boards. These have never been messed with and are nicely tailored into the shoulder seams. Boards are for hauptmann with two gold rank pips, wartime subdued silver cord on flight yellow wool underlay. Wide collar. The breast eagle is the enlisted ranks type of heavy gray machine embroidered thread on LW gray wool underlay and is heavily machine sewn in place. This eagle is original to this jacket. On each side of waist are metal adjustment buckles. Interior of jacket is lined with velvet and sleeve are lined with black cotton. Has interior pocket the opening of which is lined with black leather. Mild wear to the leather along cuffs and on shoulders, on neck area. But wear is not serious. Leather is soft and supple and is completely intact. This is a splendid original. Examined and "approved" by dealer/collector George Petersen. EXC+++++ this just sold last week just thought everyone would like to see a nice one.
