Has a chance. Please post some more pictures of the text and the areas of where the straps are stitched. Genuine kits have black dots next to the stitching, applied in the factory so that the folks would know where to stitch.

The hyphen should be floating just above the bottom line of the text and this really looks ok. The F is usually in an odd type of font, Roman style and is missing the right part of its foot.

All in all this one looks very promising.

 

Cheers,

Ken

Looks promising in the pics Costa. Is it listed as being sold with it's contents? These are quite scarce and complete originals command very respectable prices because of the airborne connection. I've got an original pack which has been opened, its contents removed and re-sealed. Looks fine for display purposes. Of course, like everything else, there are repros out there but the one in the pics seems to have some age to it?
