@Tom: Nice find, thanks! Yes, I think that's the one. Interesting price. You know by any chance if the missing nut is metric?

@Andrew: Thank you - but I'm after a used vest only. ;-)

@Anyone else: Noone around with a beat-up old vest in the closet?

Best, Frank

Doubtful. Should be SAE, but you never know. Certainly wouldn't be anything you couldn't get from a hardware store. I'd recommend a Nylock (or sometimes labeled just Nylon Locking) nut to replace the missing one - less chance of it falling off again in the future.

Keep in mind that the eBay vest is the "compact" vest. I don't know how large you can be and still fit the compact vest, but I am 5"7', average/slight build, and the "standard" Flyer vest was a little too big to fit me well. The compact vest was a better fit for me.

@Mark: Good save - I didn't realize that. :-) I was looking for the standard size as my Pilot vest is still a tad short. It works fine, but I guess I could do better with another 2 inches in height. I was under the impression the Flyer vest family allows for a little bit more extension, am I wrong with that?

Thanks, Frank
