I'd hazard a guess, it's because it's an interesting thing which many of us would like to see, and not him trying to sell it.
Are you now modding on here too?

Nice jacket, if only it was a little larger.
My apologies. I only asked a question. I mistakenly took it as a sales post and no, of course I'm not modding here.

The jacket is indeed interesting.



Excellent. Thanks for the reply.

Tarnation, reading the post ehh....what a trial...

Sorry, you actually did not ask a question you doubted our BS mods Judgement (please do not do that again).

Great news about your modding (have I got the spelling correct?). Sorry I have a cough.

Hey guys!

Nice post Sonyman!!!

Now IF this was such a special edition, I thought it would have a typhoon or at least the squadron emblem embroidered onto it?

It looks like a bog standard and rather nice Alpha Industries issue. I think the implied but not easily guaranteed RAF attachment is to further enhance the obvious I want one of those emotions in us Breitling worshippers.

And WAY overpriced!!! BUT a leather/nylon brown/olive jacket sold on ebay last christmas for 790 Euros!!!!!!!!!!!!! :wowzers

Won't be selling either of mine anytime soon. Too nice!

Davey

These cost around $102.00 from Alpha Industries but without the Breitling name.

And by looks this one is the nylon only type, not with leather.

(I am not trying to aid any sales but my own, and I'm cheap)

I know its been said before about certain watches, but I'd feel a bit like a wannabe pilot wearing that kind of jacket.

I don't wish to offend anyone that has one, it would just make ME unconfortable being so aviation orientated. From a memorabilia point of view I think they're superb!

For that sort of money I'd rather have something a lot more technical, like Arcteryx etc

Hey Mart!

I AM a wannabe pilot!!!! But I'm not brainy enough!!! :D :D :D :D

So instead I use Microsoft Flight Sim which allows me a favourable amount of latitude!

I think its still a nice jacket and I dont feel like a wanabe pilot I just am very aware of things around me, I tend to think hang on a min I am adverstising in big letters the fact that I am walking around with a £1k plus watch on my wrist and thats not something anyone should do in ceartin areas so you be carefull where you wear jackets like this.

other than that they are great :wowzers

I think it is VERY rude for a 'mod' from another forum to post here questioning them.

Rant over - off down the pet shop to buy a small animal take it home and kick it.

I wouldn't want to be a walking billboard for Breitling, unless I would get something out of this.

Maybe an Emergency Mission with that, please? :D
