B-17 Flying Fortress Added to Classic Military Aircraft Clothing Range

B-17 Flying Fortress Added to Classic Military Aircraft Clothing Range

After a protracted design evolution, I have added the B-17G Flying Fortress to the Classic Military Aircraft range.

There are 2 versions of the B-17 to choose from

  • Green coloured 94th bomb group
  • Bare metal 100th bomb group

The B-17G was the final version of Flying Fortress which incorporated all the improvements from earlier models and boasted 13 guns for defence against fighters.

B-17s were used by the USAAF as a strategic daytime bomber to complement the night time RAF Bomber Command bombing raids.

94th Bomb Group

The 94th Bomb Group were based at Rougham and the 100th Bomb Group at Thorpe Abbotts and were part of the 8th Air Force.

100th Bomb Group

The 100th Bomb Group earned the nickname ‘The Bloody Hundredth’ after heavy losses during several missions over Germany.

The B-17G is available on the full range of clothing, hats and bags, a selection of which are shown below.

The B-17 design is part of our extremely popular personalised range where you can change the base aircraft design to a squadron with markings of your choice along with personalised wording above and/or below the design.

GDMK Images January 2022 Update

U2 Black Heather Varsity Jacket snippet

GDMK Images January 2022 Update

Hi everyone I hope you have recovered from any Christmas and new year excesses.

Here is a quick update on where we are in respect of new designs, supply issues and potential shows.

First off let’s deal with supply issues and get that topic out of the way.

Mug supply has settled down and once again we are able to get regular deliveries of standard size mugs.

Unfortunately, supply of the larger mighty Mug has been extremely frustrating to the point that I have temporarily withdrawn them from sale. Once I can get regular quality supplies of the large mugs, I will reactivate the option in the web shop.

Wallets and mousemats seem to be becoming more readily available as well.as coasters, although coasters are still proving to be somewhat erratic in availability.

Now onto something a bit more positive – new products and designs!

New Polo Shirts Colours

Following many requests we have added Military Green and Kelly Green polo shirts to the range. The Military Green coloured polo is perfect for our Military Vehicle range and many of our aircraft embroidered designs.

New F-15, F-111 and U2 Aircraft Amongst Latest Embroidered Aircraft Designs

Following a number of personalised aircraft requests, I have added  some new aircraft types and Squadron options to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range. This update includes the first helicopter – the Apache AH1.

New Aircraft Types

The latest aircraft types added are –

  • U-2S
  • Apache AH-1

New Squadron Options

  • 460 Sqn Lancaster – Coded AR-A
  • 492nd FS F-15E – Coded LN

Just recently I have had some great personalised requests including –

  • 48th FW OC F-15E

In turn, these designs will be recoded with personalisation’s removed and added as Squadron options to these existing aircraft types.

How To Buy These New Aircraft Designs

I’m still breaking each aircraft type down into its own single product for each type of clothing. In the meantime, all of the new options can be ordered from the main Personalised Aircraft Clothing Section and selected as an option on the dropdown list.

There you can choose your aircraft type and Squadron and request any personalised wording or new Squadron options.

A-10 Warthog, B-52 BUFF and F-15E Strike Eagle Now Standalone Aircraft Types

81st FS A-10 Navy Red Hoodie

A-10 Warthog, B-52 BUFF and F-15E Strike Eagle Now Standalone Aircraft Types

I have started to add the aircraft types featured in our Desert Storm 30th Anniversary commemorative clothing range to the Classic Military Aircraft clothing range.

You now have the option to buy these iconic aircraft types as both a Desert Storm commemorative garment and a Classic Military Aircraft garment.

If you haven’t seen the CMA range, the design features the aircraft name and service dates. Check them out as there is in excess of 30 aircraft types now!

New Additions include the following types and squadron options – 

A-10

  • 511th TFS from Alconbury in Camo colour scheme with sharks mouth nose.
  • 81st FS in standard grey.

F-15

  • 335th TFS F-15E from Seymour Johnson

B-52

  • 806th BW B-52G in Desert Storm colour scheme
  • 96th BW B-52H in standard grey.
[ux_product_categories style=”normal” columns=”3″ ids=”12478,12480,12554″]

Desert Storm Variants Added to Existing Aircraft Types

I did several aircraft types that already existed in the Classic Military Aircraft range in Desert Storm colours for the Commemorative Range.

The following aircraft are now options in the CMA range – 

  • 16 Sqn Tornado ZA447 ‘Mig Eater’
  • 12 Sqn Buccaneer 
  • 6 Sqn Jaguar
[ux_product_categories style=”normal” columns=”3″ ids=”12578,12421,12225″]

Request New Aircraft Types or Squadron Colours 

Each aircraft type on the Classic Military Aircraft Range provides an option for you to request the design in new Squadron colours or markings for a small additional charge.

If you would like an aircraft type not currently available then use the products in the Personalised Aviation Clothing range. These product allow you to request new aircraft types and also the provide the facility to personalise your design.

Aircraft Types in Progress

I’m currently finishing off the Victor in Desert Storm colours and a 1960s Camo scheme.

Following these two designs I have the following to work through –

  • Australian F-111 to add to the existing 494th TFS design already available
  • B-17
  • B-24
  • P-51
  • P-47
  • Hawk

Classic Military Aircraft Range Overhaul

I’m also in the process of overhauling the way the CMA range is presented. Originally, all designs were available under a single product, with each aircraft as a drop-down option.

Following feedback, I am breaking each aircraft type down into separate products grouped together in their own Classic Military Aircraft Category.

This process will take a little while longer, so if you cant find a particular product under the aircraft type category, every aircraft type is available as a drop down option in the personalised aircraft range.

Thanks for reading and please let me know your thoughts on these aircraft clothing designs!

Stay safe

Gary
