Hello,

My passion is WW II Japanese aviation and I have loved Japanese history and airplanes since my youth.

I also collect original WW II Japanese pilot flying gear, insignia, etc.. Please contact me if you have any items like this for sale.

Thanks,

Ron

Ron,
I just joined this web site and saw your Ad and I have WW II Japanese items for sale. I collected WW II Aviation for 17 years and quit collecting over 13 years ago to collect another interest. I have been selling my collection little by little over the past 3 years to private collectors but I still have a lot of nice items left. I collected WW II US Army Air Force, US Navy Aviation, Japanese and some Luftwaffe. Ron, is there anything special that you're looking for? If you'll send me your email address I'll send you a couple pictures. Regards Mike

i have the same suit. unbelievably they are quite common!!!! somebody must have found a significant stash of them after the war. mine is missing the waist belt, & has a few snags. the exterior of the pictured suit looks to be new old stock.

Hello,

Thanks for your message. However, I already have this flight suit. As Tom mentioned, they are quite common. Mint w/the belt and uncut electrical plug they run $300-$400. Deduct for any mothing, missing belt, etc.

They are Japanese Army Air Force.

Hope that helps.

Ron
