Found pictures of these unsual flight jackets while browsing the fantastic jetpilotsoverseas. Anyone seen them before? Field modified jacket? Aero Medical? The pocket zips certianly look like the real thing - not some off the shelf zip from a tailor shop. There are a few more pics on the site with same two airmen wearing the jackets.

These look like the jackets you see a lot of tech reps or Test pilots wearing. They are almost made out of the same material as K2B flight suits.

One of the companies that made them was called Flight Line (?).

I have had them in the olive green color and also blue.

Thanks, Bob. Sounds spot on, acording to the picture caption they where test pilots for the Hustler program. Something to look out for now!
