Description

In 2013, following the success of their previously highly acclaimed WWII mini-series ‘Band Of Brothers’ and ‘Pacific’, Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks announced they would be producing their third instalment of authentic wartime dramas entitled ‘Masters Of The Air’.

A few years passed before production actually started but in 2019 we were approached by the production company with the view of producing their requirements regarding authentic flight jackets and associated garments.

Needless to say one of the most popular that would be required was the Type A-2 - the most famous of all the US Army Air Force flight jackets. Many of our varioius A-2 models were used in the production with the Air Master being one of the most prolific.
