        ¡ Fantastic Jos, this is that I was looking for!

        now I am going to tell my idea,

        one friend of mine ,is going to sell me one unused fliegerblouse ,it has alredy

        the threads to the paper (with interior markings) in the arm.

        This is an NCO FB,but this FB never had collar patches and NCO aluminium cords.

        If I buy this FB, I have to put them.

        I have thought another thing, if I have to put NCO collar tabs and cords

        I can to put officer collar tabs,and officer aluminium cord I have from period,

        and for to finish ,I change the shoulder boards for officer shoulder,and I have

        one official FB.

        since the FB is unused ,for me is not important to put this items,because the shoulder can be change ,and the flieger must to have collar and aluminium cords,NCO,or officer.

        My idea is at the same time,for if I sell this flieger in the future, all the people cant to know
        that I have made this FB,because they can to see the interior marks.

        ¿what do you think? .

          You will find that the loops for the EM shoulderboards are very obvious under a pair of officer boards.
          What will you do then?
          Are the feldwebel boards original to the fliegerbluse? When you remove them, what will you do with them? Will you keep them?
          I ask these questions, because what you are proposing may result in some irreversble changes being made to an otherwise pristine and original tunic.

            dornier,

            I would agree with "N" in that you are considering an awful lot of changes and upgrades to a period piece that is what it is.

            Here's a question - what is it you want for your collection? An issue fliegerbluse with officer tabs/boards and an OR/NCO eagle? Something else?

            We all have visions for our collection, and the next piece on our wish list. But if you share exactly what it is you're looking for, many of us here can tell you if it's easy, medium, or difficult to find. In other words, there's no point in restoring (or even worse, creating) a uniform that may be relatively easy and affordable to source. For example, issue fliegerblusen are relatively common. Issue fliegerblusen with officer insignia are seen from time to time. Someone here may be willing to sell you what you want, or know where one is currently for sale.

            The issue many collectors have of changing period pieces, regardless of their current status, is a can of worms, as they say.

            J-

              Hi I am not sure in to do it,for this I want to listen opinions.

              The loops for the EM shoulderboards are obvious in the Philip captain,
              and in the photo that has posted Jos,both are EM,NCO Fliegerblouse,

              When I remove I can to save ,or I can to sell.

                    Collar tabs were discontinued from use on field uniforms in November of 1944. If you put on any set of EM shoulder slides, you would have a period correct post Nov 1944 LW Field uniform. They would look great with a set of LW EM pioneer or medical straps!

                      I understand Paul,if I put EM shoulder,the NCO tresse,it is not necesary,and the uniform is correct in these time.
