Great jacket - Sizing way off
- By Chuck from Elkhorn WI USA on Tuesday, November 10, 2015
- Pros: Wonderful jacket.
- Cons: My Pilot store should be aware of this sizing issue.
- Review:
Outstanding Jacket. I wore out the first and ordered another. The sizing is another issue. After reading reviews that said the jacket ran large in size I called My Pilot store and inquired. My Pilot Store said use our sizing chart and you'll be fine. I then ordered the medium, which is normal for me. I literally swam in the medium. I had to pay to ship it back to exchange it for a small. The small fits perfect and even has room for a bulky sweater underneath. Somehow it does not seem right that I had to pay return shipping when I followed the sizing rules on the website.
(editor note: MyPilotStore refunded the shipping charges upon return) - Was this review helpful to you? Yes No 15 Other people found this review helpful.

Nice Jacket
- By A Customer from Williamsburg VA USA on Monday, April 21, 2014
- Pros: Well Made, light and very comfortable
- Cons: None
- Review: I find this to be a very well made jacket. It is very soft, warm, comfortable and lightweight. The size chart led me to believe I should get an XL - I am 6 foot 200 lbs so I ordered an XL but it was huge. They were great about exchanging it and I got a large. I actually probably could have worn a medium but the large is fine. I would recommend this jacket as a spring / early Fall jacket. It looks nice and goes well with jeans or dockers as I wear it to work.

Excellent Quality
- By Derek from Lafayette LA USA on Wednesday, December 10, 2014
- Pros: Stylish and well made; easy to care for...
- Cons: In extreme cold, a scarf is needed...but makes a good look
- Review: It is very well made, was surprised how warm it keeps me. Love the fact that it is machine washable. I advise you to order a size below what you normally wear, as it runs a bit large.

Great Jacket
- By Marc C. from Norman OK USA on Sunday, February 10, 2013
- Review: The jacket fits very well and is still roomy. I especially like the lightweight feel. My only criticism is the leather "The Cockpit" logo on the front, which I thought detracted from the look of he jacket and promptly removed.

Good quality jacket, favorable comments from friends.
- By Jerry from Hastings . New Zealand on Thursday, January 05, 2012
- Pros: All good
- Cons: Gets dirty around oily airplanes, adds to authenticity.
- Review: I immediately cut off the leather logo on the front. I wanted a WWII military look without being accused of a "Top Gun" wannabe.Very satisfied. A WWII Burma, Africa or Italy escape map on the inside would have made it even better!

Nice jacket
Fantastic Bomber
- By Doc from Austin, Texas on Thursday, January 08, 2009
- Pros: styling, leather accents, true to size. 38-40 is M, 42-44 is L
- Cons: pilling of cuffs and bottom of jacket after cold water wash.
- Review: As an alternative to an all-leather bomber, this fits the bill and very well. I've worn it in Austin, Texas, even when fairly hot, and it is not too heavy. Outside pockets flapped, with side entry pockets are very convenient. The leather does actually stand up to washing in cold water. My only complaint is that the stretch material at the cuff and the bottom of the jacket began to pill a bit after washing, but this won't prevent my buying another. This is the same manufacturer that made the now RARE Maj. Goodson bomber jacket, which I have had leather cleaned, with no problem. Unless you want to spend 400-500 dollars, these are the best there is bar none (no kidding!). Left inside breast pocket is deep and will hold a thick wallet without showing outside.

Perfect for spring and fall
- By Elizabeth from Saint Charles MO USA on Monday, January 19, 2015

- Cons:
- Review: My husband loved the fit and use it to fly his small plane. I feel he looks good and the color contrast from the collar adds to the style.

Great jacket!
- By Frank from Lorain OH USA on Tuesday, February 07, 2012
- Pros: quality materials and craftsmanship
- Cons: pricey.
- Review: I like this jacket. It is heavy enough for mid-40F, low-wind weather and light enough at low-60F breezes. It fits well and the leather accents are just right, The lining is comfortable and the pockets are plentiful. It feels good when I'm wearing it. It fits well in the cockpit. I purchased it because my son gave me a Christmas gift card. Normally I would have not paid this much for a light jacket but I am very glad I purchased this one.

Great Customer Service at mypilotstore!
- By Jan from Hutchinson KS USA on Friday, October 19, 2018
- Pros: Great Vendor and Good Product
- Cons: None
- Review: My 5 stars is for mypilotstore as they are a great vendor to do business with. I had no problems with the product and it was delivered extremely fast to Kansas from Arizona. I like cotton and lightweight for jackets as rarely is it cold enough for me in Kansas to wear a coat. The A2 as purchased fit the bill nicely and would recommend a look for anyone interested in a quality jacket.

- Review: I've wanted the jacket for years but was told it didn't come in my size. Now I have one and couldn't be happier! I have the original leather version and it is sometimes too heavy for wear. This jacket fills the spring and autumn need. It's all I ever thought it would be.

A-2 Brute?
- By jeffrey from guilford CT USA on Monday, March 23, 2009
- Pros: Excellent build quality. Very warm.
- Cons:
- Review: The build quality is wonderful. I may like it more than my leather A-2 jacket. The fit and finish of all seams, pockets, liner, etc. are flawless. This is also a very warm jacket - a nice addition to my New England winter attire.

He now has it and loves it. He is thrilled with the jacket and I am thrilled with the price I paid for it. Many thanks to you!

All cotton A2 jacket
- By Steve from Hemet, Ca. on Saturday, March 14, 2009
- Pros: looks, style, durability++++
- Cons:
- Review: I was absolutely delighted with the A2 jacket's quality and will be proud to wear it anywhere. Owning several leather jackets already, I find this product is on a par with them and would endorse it anywhere. The A2 jacket was certainly worth the wait. As an elementary school special education teacher, I pride myself in my professional performance and appearance as teacher's should be role models. You can bet I'll be wearing this on Monday. Thank you for a superb product. Stephen W. Amodt

I like It!!
- By Rollie from Stevenson Ranch CA USA on Friday, April 10, 2009
- Review: This runs a little large. I sent the measurements to mypilotstore, they recommended a med. I of course ordered a large, It was to big. Exchanged for Med, perfict fit. A little heavy for a true summer jacket. This is a 50 to 75F jacket with short sleave shirt. Great look and shape Thank You Rollie

Great jacket!
- By Michael from Tipp City OH USA on Monday, May 25, 2009
- Pros: nice material; great fit..true to size
- Cons: none
- Review: I wanted to replace my old Avirex A-2 cotton jacket that had seen its better days. The "100 Mission" jacket is even better. The cotton appears heavier and more durable. The snap breast pockets are easier to open/close. This is a great jacket for all seasons. I got the kahkai color; the olive green is no longer made.

A really good value
- By Marc from Blackstone MA USA on Thursday, October 15, 2009
- Pros: Excellent fit and well made.
- Cons: None that I have encountered.
- Review: I've been wearing this jacket for about a month now and I really like the way it fits and looks. The size runs just a tad on the loose side allowing for me to easily wear a sweater on cool mornings here in New Englans. It looks great with kaki's or jeans. All in all I am very pleased with this purchase.

Really glad I bought this jacket ! ! !
- By A Customer from Sparks NV USA on Monday, December 14, 2009
- Pros: Really like the style
- Cons: Don't know of any
- Review: This is an excellent jacket. The quality is top notch. I normally wear XL, but bought this in XXL to accommodate a flannel shirt and maybe a thermal top. The XXL size worked perfect, yet doesn't feel super sized when wearing a normal shirt. The large pockets are well positioned and very useful. Love my A-2 jacket!!!

MORE THAN EXPECTED
- By ADRIEN A. from PLYMOUTH MA USA on Monday, January 18, 2010
- Pros: good quality
- Cons: just a little pricey when you add shipping
- Review: The quality of this jacket was better than expected for the price. I do not make a habit of buying on line mostly because of added shipping cost . Quite often I can find like products at same price less shipping but not in this case. The jacket looks and feels better than what I paid for it.

Time for #2!

- Pros: All Good!
- Cons: None
- Review: About 20 years ago I bought this jacket. Compliments for years and about a year ago it disappeared. Still sharp looking, but someone else needed it more than me. With our pilot's club logo added it was a good attention getter, but more than that a well made and comfortable jacket. Send #2!
