It's good to hear from Peter on the Forum.
Thought Dog's comments were rough. Maybe things were blown out of proportion out of aggraivation. Noone will no for sure. As for my Wested, things were fine. Nice jacket, no complaints, delivered in 4 weeks as told (Oct. 2000).

As for Peter: yes, you do have claim to the original design. However, it the curent design is not as exact as the originals were.
Things are a little different and that's okay, you do make a good quality jacket as far as I'm concerned. As for the Flight Suits Compnay, do not bad mouth them. They are simply trying to get as close as they can to the original design. Through research and measurements from an actual production jacket used in the Raiders movie, Flight Suits has come close to their goal. Minor adjustments such as the raising of the back seam and the top of the pleat a few inches are really all that is NEEDED to be made (HINT HINT). Since they have made the jacket available to purchase little changes have already been made. After a few more they should be there. Point is do not lead that they have copied yours. They have not.

Everyone smile.

Cheers,
