Additionally, many of the pieces are attributed to the original owner with biographical information, contemporary photographs of the individual, and the aircraft on which he served. Personal combat accounts are also included. Also covered are other military jackets used by flyers.American Flight Jackets, Airmen & Aircraft was compiled over a number of years by Jon Maguire and John Conway. The authors became friends through a mutual passion for aviation history and collecting. This book provides a valuable reference for the historians and collectors alike, and includes over 1000 photographs.

Ordered the book and paid immediately. Original delivery date passed and contacted seller. No communication. Order was adjusted to show a delivery date almost two weeks later (approaching a month after payment). Contacted seller again- no communication for a second time. eBay issued refund. Poor communication from seller, bottom line is i still have to find the item and order it after almost a month.
