Flight Suit Pen/Pencil Pocket Question

Greetings,

 

This might be a bit of an odd question and hopefully this is the correct place to put it, but I've been working on a replica costume and the last piece I need for the flight suit is a pen/pencil pocket with the expanding larger zipper pocket. I've been searching for, quite literally, a few years now and have yet to find a pattern for one. Never thought it would be so hard. Does anyone happen to know of a pattern for one of these that I might be able to find somewhere?

 

I've uploaded a few pictures of what I'm referring to. Does anyone know of a pattern for one of these pockets? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you!

You probably won't find a pattern. I would suggest measuring one and then making one of having one made.

 

After all, you'd be surprised how many modifications are done on flight equipment by the guys in the parachute shop.

Unfortunately, I don't know anyone who can make one, and I have the suit myself already, just without the pocket. It has everything else... But no pocket. Heh. (Thankfully I also have extra matching material.)

I will take one off of a flight suit nd send it to you if that helps


If you wouldn't mind doing so, that would be wonderful. If I had one to look at it would defintely be helpeful and I could make a pattern from it. Looking at a few pictures online only helps so much. :)
