Vintage United Airlines

VINTAGE Amelia Earhart UNITED AIRLINES STAN HERMAN FLIGHT ATTENDANT WOMEN’S JACKET IN SIZE 8 REGULAR. What does the woman flight aviator wear? There were no traditions but those of wartime flying to follow, and both men and women adopted or modified it to suit commercial needs. Also, flying fields were usually dirty, planes were crude, and there were no refinements in facilities, such as passenger waiting-rooms, and so forth. Altogether, the clothing had to be rather rough. Since the war, flying has under gone the same sort of changes that automobiling did previously. Do you remember the dashing linen dusters and gauntlets and veils of 1908? They constituted an “automobiling costume, ” and of course one couldn’t tour without the proper accessories. At the present time, with the development of luxurious passenger planes, ? There isn’t the necessity for special dress. One wears ordinary street clothes. There are comfortable upholstered seats, one can move about at will, read, or write, or sleep. On one line a buffet luncheon is served at no extra charge. This is a rare women’s flight attendants issued jacket. They didn’t come with a belt for safety reasons and they were very well constructed. This particular one has its original owners name on the tag and is a size 8 Regular. Measurements are armpit to armpit 20″ sleeves armpit to cuff 16 1/2″ and length 46. This item is in the category “Clothing, Shoes & Accessories\Women\Women’s Clothing\Coats, Jackets & Vests”.
