Here is a visual comparison of both blue leather flight jackets. Now brace yourself: the link Mike E. provided to the British manufacturer for the RAF shows that the Milspec for the Type 89903 is cowhide. Run away! Run away!
(BTW, the price is much lower direct from the maker than from Silvermans)
The French jacket is goatskin.
