Hey all,If any of you are into vintage flying clothes. and aren't too large.Ck out Sportsman's guide. Just found the coolest set of vintage style woolblend Italian coveralls (WX2-206131 New Italian Military Issue WoolCoveralls, Gray)which are identical to those I've seen pictured being worn by aviators inthe thirties. $23 just got me a pair and they are awesome! Even thoughthey are marked large though, they are barely large enough for me, and I'monly 5'9" and weigh 155. The quality though seems excellent and the stylingis perfect for those of us who like to look the part. Just ordered a secondpair because these won't ever come back I'm guessing.Enjoy!Douwehttp://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/new-ital ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Sport plane construction techniques by Tony Bingelis

So I FINALLY bought the rest of the series of How To books, and I am grateful tothose on this list that have done 2 things for me:1. NOT told me to shut up and look it up in these books first before asking here;2. Patiently advised me of answers contained in these books.I'm only 50 pages not he yellow book and already answered a ton of metal questionsI had about the fittings I am about to attempt.So, if you are just starting, get the whole set of books first! Don't buy themone at a time like I started out doing!I know the esteemed Mike Cuy has said he relied on these before there really wasa list like this to turn to... I now know why.Mark(shrugging his shoulders and slapping his forehead in Fresno)Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: cool vintage style wool coveralls
