Luftwaffe fighter pilot's flight jacket (winter)


Description

Leather flight jacket to wear with leather flight trousers. This pattern was mainly issued to fighter pilots towards the end of the war and is therefore also known as a "Reichsverteidigung" pattern since air combat mainly happened over German ground at this time.

A winter pattern which could be electrically heated. There are plugs to both sleeves.

Leather: The condition of the leather is very good. It is soft and free from any serious cracks. 
Zippers: Both sleeve zippers are fully working. Both are period time attached but one looks to have been period time replaced. The are "Elite" and "Rapid" marked. 
Buttons: Both sleeve buttons working. One is period time attached and "PRYM 6" marked. The other one looks to be a postwar replacement. The five front buttons are complete but not all are originally attached.

Collar: Fur in good condition with signs of age. Soft. S
Lining: Blue silk. 
Insignia: embroidered breast eagle. Hand attached.
