: Hi,

: I was wondering why there is such an effort to make a new jacket
: with flight suits when the wested has the original pattern? Is
: there something that the Wested does not have? I thought Peter
: made the original jackets and still makes exact replicas?

: I guess my real question is, I've seen you go to a lot of trouble to
: try to get Flight Suits to make a "new" jacket with other specs, but
: why? Aren't Peter's specs correct? And if not, how could that be
: since he made the originals?

: This post is not intended to offend anyone. Please understand,
: I'm not knocking the idea of a new jacket or trying to insult your
: expertise, I was just curious as to why..

: Thanks and best regards,

: Indy Sean

A side by side comparison of a documented original jacket to a Wested Raiders has lead me to conclude that original patterns do not exist. Many other things also lead me to that conclusion, as well. I'm too tired to rehash, and I'm REALLY trying to make nice with Peter.
