Thank you David,
No action back, I went for a simple design, something similar to the Reefer coat Michael had made in 1000gms Blue flannel.

Great!
Looking forward for the photos as soon as it is ready.
I suppose it will be a very short jacket?
I am also considering something short for heli flights.

Interesting that the sleeve buttons are already in.

Is this to be worn over a suit?

Thank you Michael: your Reefer coat was the inspiration.
I should have it finished by the end of January: I'll keep the thread updated,

I just saw and admired this in person at the tailor's, what a surprise to see it here! He made me something very similar last year, out of the LL brown herringbone Shetland.
