Stores reference 22c/1963.  Suits, Flying, Cotton Gaberdine, Blue/Grey, Mk.4/4A.  Size 6, height 64-68", weight greater than 174lbs.  Blue-grey ventile one-piece flying suit with zip fastening from crotch to the neck, angled zipped chest pockets, zipped ankle openings and zipped pockets on both thighs.  Button/tab adjustable cuffs and buckled straps at the waist.  Flapped pockets with button closures on the lower legs and right thigh. Pen pockets on the upper left arm.  With stitched epaulettes.  Integral internal braces help alleviate the weight of the suit when worn.  The cloth is in very good condition, generally clean and aside from one very small repair on the back, appears to be undamaged.  All zips are original and function correctly though some would benefit from lubriation.  Good to find an unmodified version of this suit, as some had all their buttons removed, buttons-holes sewn up and replaced with Velcro.  A good example.  Stock code S26308.
