Hey I am looking for a flight suit to purchess from a place in Canada if I can. The only places I can find one are in the states. I looked at VIP pilot and Aviation world and Leavens (Aviation world told me to try them). A place i nthe Winnipeg area would be nice. But if I have to order one I ill do that too!!!

If you're talking about CF flight suits, check out your local surplus store.

Thks Guys for your help Doc I don't think a 44R will fit i would need a 44T I think. But I might take you up on it. And stop making this about a white collar job vs. a blue collar job. I just need a flight suit for work I don't particularly want to wear one but the boss says I gotta so. I am gonna get one never have at any of my other flying jobs.
thks guys

Hard to avoid when you're flying freight and fuel all day in the middle of a hot summer. Hell, it's even hard to avoid in the dead of winter!polar one wrote:And nothing, in my opinion looks worse, than a grease stained old flight suit,half unzipped with a dirty old T-shirt underneath.
