Brand new nomex flight suit with tags.

Sold online for $160-200.

First $50 gets it. (plus shipping)

<----It looks like that, except without the armor or the rifle.

is that a military suit? if so, are you allowed to sell those?

LoadMasterC141 · February 18th, 2008, 23:47

That much on Ebay? Wow. I guess I am going to put mine up for auction then!

Kristie, I can't see why not if the person is no longer active. That is why they have these things called Military Surplus stores.

I have a ton of military gear.

Kristie · February 18th, 2008, 23:49

as long as there's no insignia or what not right?

just making sure... i don't know enough to know but want to make sure people are protected too!

Reading the profile and so, dhc has 2 more years there, so still active duty...unless he's getting himself a whole NEW suit...then that'd be a great reason to sell!

Well it was never that hard to get extra suits when I was in, and they are AF issue. I would think one would get into a fair amount of trouble if they were trying to sell wearable suits while still active, but I don't know. After that though, they don't really want them back.

I have about a dozen or so flight suits. Patches and insignias are velcroed on, but there is no issue with selling those either.

It is kind of why you see all these military surplus stores. People sell their old uniforms. I got rid of all my BDU's and service dress at one of those joints.

I see... thanks for the clarification, I appreciate it!

dhc2tacksby · February 19th, 2008, 01:23

I have half a million flight suits. Only selling one though.

I didn't see any of the same suits on ebay, but googled it and found a few sites that were selling them for 160-200 range.

The only velcro is above the left breast pocket, its for a standard name board. Obviously not included.

You must have a really big closet.

I've got a couple Naval Officer Uniforms!

Delta basically uses the same uniform, but puts a logo on the buttons. But the hat is black.

dhc2tacksby · February 20th, 2008, 15:06

Yeah, gotta make room for the girlfriends shoe's.

dhc2tacksby · February 21st, 2008, 16:14

Gone.
