wdbikemad Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I suppose it was only a matter of time before the venerable MK3 green RAF Cold Weather flying jacket was replaced by the MK4 version.............the former issue (with various modifications) serving from 1969 (in green) through to at least 2012........prior to that a similar version served for a couple of years in blue-grey............. Essentially the same garment........but now a more vivid grey-green stiffer "canvas" type fabric which is fire-resistant (the previous fabric being high-quality 100% cotton gabardine in either grey-olive, olive green or blue-grey fabric, non - FR), completely lined in black Goretex fabric................design overall however, hasn't altered, nor have the matching trousers.........flying suits have been in this colour for the last few years so logical that the cold weather kit would follow............. Very few of the new type on the market atm........this example in a size 7 is new............. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
