Donovan Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 I was just wondering wat the requirements were for a 2 piece undersuit?
Heavy Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 If you read the CRL it says : FLIGHT SUIT The undersuit is a one or two-piece black textile suit, such as military flightsuits, motorcycle racing suits, industrial work clothing (Dickies), or similar suit modified appropriately. Must have a suede or faux suede butt flap attached above the waist hidden by the cummerbund, rectangle in shape. The flap should be slightly narrower than the width of the trooper and stop slightly higher than the bottom of the troopers butt cheeks. Suede or faux suede thigh patches must be present, extending over the flight suit crotch and down the front finishing above the knee armor. The thigh patches must be secured by 50mm (2") black elastic, sewn in under the front and back of the thigh patch. Suit must not have any visible labels, logos or zippers (including built in flight suit pockets)
chimei Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 where would one even find a two piece suit? what is a textile suit?
Griffin-X Posted February 18, 2013 Posted February 18, 2013 Here in Texas, a textile suit is an automotive or painter's coverall...similar to Redkap.
Donovan Posted February 18, 2013 Author Posted February 18, 2013 That's what I was wondering...I had no clue on wat a textile suit was
Griffin-X Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 Some of us wear a jumpsuit, Flightsuit, a racing suit, or coveralls. I chose the Redkap coverall route for mine.
Donovan Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 https://secure.armysurplusforless.com//productView.php?id=666 I was looking at this one but I just wanted to check the requirements for a 2 piece
bwattsup Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 That's a hell of a lot of zippers to remove. :/ Yikes!!!!
Donovan Posted February 19, 2013 Author Posted February 19, 2013 Its tht or a redkap.I thot this one becuz it was a smaller style but if removing zippers is difficult I may not choose tht one
M.J Posted February 19, 2013 Posted February 19, 2013 I have made a couple of scout under armor (for smaller Scout) work pants/School pants both are thick textile gathered at the top no zips and hidden pockets, the top was a little harder but business shirt again thick textile fabric, it took me a 6 months of searching around the Melbourne area to find these, you just need to go shopping!!! Do not get the flight suit, the fabric is tooo thin I know I have the olive one for another costume ...My marines drop pilot. If are going to buy on Line Donovan just run it by us. You can easy get the two piece.
Donovan Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 Kelly You mind sending me a pic or two of your undersuit?
