Help with Royal Naval air Service uniform?

Postby StrutterGunner » Sun Feb 20, 2005 6:39 pm

Im currently building up a repro ww1 RNAS uniform for use in airshows, but Im having a very hard time finding any pictures of RNAS pilots in full uniform. Pictures of pilots wearing the dark blue jacket with the double row or buttons are good, pictures of pilots wearing this plus flight gear are even better. any help at all with this would be greatly appreciated. thank you.

Thank you very much (a bit of a belated thank you I admit)

A lot of stuff will be listed under FAA - Fleet Air Arm as well ;)

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!
