I third that! Sorry Debbie, I know I keep saying I'm going to post pics of mine on but I'm a lazy doofus!

The product is awesome though for sure!

Thanks Everyone, Carole has been making the majority of the flightsuits for quite a long time now. She is just now deciding to break out of hiding.

I am very glad she is now here with me!! My partner in crime!

You should see what she can do. I need to get some more of here pics up on the website, she made the most awesome flapper dress for her daughter for Halloween, without a pattern.

Yes, I think she is great can you tell?

Quick question. I currently have one of skygunbro's excellent flightsuits. Unfortunately for me I recently took some damage to it around the shin tool pockets which resulted in a complete rip around the leg. What is the thickness of the material you use like? Is it stronger/more durable than the seemingly lightweight sgb suit?

I have not personally seen a sgb suit, so I can't really compare, but our fabric is 100% cotton twill and it's pretty thick stuff. I would say its about the thickness of Dickies, if that helps. And our suits come with the double zipper, not sure if anyone elses do.

I have a sgb and LSFU flightsuits are alot thicker.

Carole, this is Daniel, Daniel meet Carole

I am sure you two will eventually meet.

Carole, Daniel is local and Mark and him have become fast friends.


And just to make it clear, no one is lessening the greatness of the SGB suits, he was the gold standard for suits, as long as he was sewing them. Many ppl were not happy about that retirement!

Kudos to you Jason!!

A buddy of mine has a SGB suit which is nice, and I have the LSFU suit. Mine is made of thicker material. This is nice and will hold up longer, but it is hotter when I wear it.

What payment options do you prefer? Check? Credit Card? PayPal? Cash? Firstborn?

Paypal is prefered, I have a child and have no wish for more, thank you very much!

Mod's can you please move this thread to the Cargo Hold?

Carole did not realize that this was in the wrong place.

got my suit today, it is bleeping awesome!!!!

I am finishing up Andrew and I will start yours by the end of the week.

wow these flight suits look great but christmas is here so have to think about others =D

I read that the suits are thicker than SGB's. What weight fabric, where can I get some? What do I ask for when I got to a fabric store? Thanks for the info.

You should look for a 100% cotton twill material. It should have the feel of a pair of pants, for example, like Dickies work pants.

It is not always easy to find the combination of the right color and the right fabric.
If it is 100% cotton, you can dye it to the color you would like.

I just purchased our next bolt of fabric and it will not be quite as heavy.
There are benefits and drawbacks to either light or heavy fabric.

Heavy fabric, is much hotter to troop in, but may last longer. Heavier fabric is cool and more comfortable for trooping, but may not last as long.

It is really a matter of opinion. But everyone stays with cotton because it is screen accurate, easy to dye if needed and it breathes, it is much more comfortable.

Thanks for the info. My current suit is a set of olive drab Army surplus mechanics coveralls with pouches added. Not exactly ideal, but it served the purpose. I know my costume is pitiful compared to some, but I'm still at it. Almost three years now and counting.

I'm in the never-ending process of upgrading here and there. Gauntlets and jumpsuit are items #1 & #2 for the foreseeable future.

Just got my flightsuit today....all I can say is "wow"! This thing fits me perfectly, and looks great. Really top-notch work - thanks Debbi and Carole!

Wish I had more costume parts assembled to show off with my suit, but here are a couple of shots from my "test fitting".

These are my very first pics of what will eventually be my ESB Fett

I have posted a new run. See the first post for info

I would absolutely agree. I bought a Flightsuit, Neckseal, Vest and Spats from them and LOVE them.

Oh man, I wish I got in on this run. I completely forgot about the new run... oh well...

NO worries we made 2 suits though one lightweight one for the guys trooping in the hotter climates and one heavy suit made of twill.So some were lighter than others it depended on the buyers preference.

Suits look great ladies!

Thanks for the good words guys!

A couple of spots have opened up if anyone is interested, send me a PM.

Pm sent. Thanks to you all..

Do you still have an opening for one more? I am interested if you are. Im in Los Angeles, are you close by? Thank you for your time.
