MA-1 Flight Jackets
The MA-1 flight jacket was first issued in the
mid-20th century to the United States Air Force, Navy, and Army. In
warm weather, pilots could wear the jacket open comfortably,
whereas in flight, the pilot would close the jacket to combat
extreme cold air. The jacket is popular here in America and in
other countries during cold winter months. It is also frequently
used by police forces operating under cold weather
conditions.
Navy Flight Jackets
The Navy flight jacket is part of the required
military uniform during cold weather conditions. Navy pilots,
flight officers, surgeons, and select air crew members are required
to wear them as necessary. These quality jackets are constructed of
either nylon or leather, with the latter frequently worn by
civilians desiring a touch of military class in their wardrobe.
