Per the title really. Need something to keep out the breezes with the scribbly pads on the knees on account of anything not nailed into the cockpit blowing away.

I've got a spare Mk14a size 8 with all the required pockets and kneepad bits (and a survival knife). I fit into a size 6 normally and you're not that much fatter or taller than me (a couple inches in each direction at most) so you should be able to squeeze into an 8.

The sizes marked for a size 8 are: Chest 99/107; Height 180/186 (that's in cm :twisted:).

Hi Ian.

Thanks for the offer. I can squeeze into an 8, in fact I do at the moment. In fact I think I look rather dashing for as long as I can hold my stomach in (usually up to the point where I sit in the cockpit and nobody can see me :D )

Problem is I can only really wear a single layer underneath, there's no room for (say) a jumper. My 'full on' winter option is a fleece lined microlight onesie but I'd really like something in between. Like a size 9!

I have a size 9. 14A. Needs a minor repair. Looks like a single stab wound in the back :shock:
Otherwise fine. All map pockets etc. Yours for a £10 donation to my fuel fund.

I'll have that if you don't mind. I might just add some fake blood and leave the hole as is. War wound.......shrapnel from the 'nam*......you weren't there man, you weren't there!

Years ago , we used to buy them from a local Salvage man & many had been ' holed ' to render them unsaleable ?. :?

They cut mine off me in A&E which at the time seemed the least of my worries.

But I really am feeling its loss now. I have replaced it with an Italian one, very natty, but like Flint's only wearable with thin layers beneath. But worst of all, no kneepad. I hadn't realised how much I'd miss those.

Sure you're not thinking of parachutes? Not that I'm saying you're big or anything...

Flint: If you're still looking I have a size 9 completely unused with all the kneepads/ ankle pockets etc.

(given to me but I rapidly out grew it in the midriff dimension so worn half a dozen times.)

Trouble is it went into store as part of our house move last week: I'll see if it's accessible next time I go to the store and check size etc in a few days' time if you're still interested.
