Welcome here! Pilot, very good choice too! Have you registered on the pilot forum and posted a presentation? If so, you will get a mentor from there as well! That's the place for finding information and where to buy stuff and so on. And of course, by asking here!

Boots look ok, so does the jumpsuit. However, the jumpsuits are known to have issues with the commpad pocket "window" being too small, so that usually needs to be fixed. And also the lower leg pockets might need re-positioning. Other than that, no worries I think!

Hello there!

Yes the CPS suit needs to be modified, for some reason they changed their pattern within the last 12months and the thigh pockets are way to low (because the hip pockets are two-three times to long)
But if you arent a stranger to sewing then the rest of the suit is very much approved (apart from maybe the commpad pocket) assuming it fits properly.

i would also recommend you to sign up at the Detachment forum for pilots: Jolly Roger Squadron.
There you will get a mentor assigned to you that will make sure you get all the correct information you require

And being 181st TIE fighter pilot you don't have to adjust the com-pocket, because your arm bracers will cover it!

This is my 181st:

I'll send you a PM later! (With the same info I have given both Christian and Thomas, about the 181st pilot. I think they want(ed) to make it as well.)

What's not working for you? I can at least get to the forum...

I don't have an account there so maybe something else is not working?
