I was unsure how to title this thread, so please hear me out...

I'm headed to England to see a girl this Wednesday. I haven't seen her in a VERY long time, and she's very special to me. Although we've met before, I feel like this is "another first impression". I want to make sure I look perfect for her.

I'm an aviator in the Navy...and I was issued the G-1 brown leather bomber jacket. Unfortunately, I've NEVER been able to wear it because I'm always in warm climates lol. I know England is going to be bitterly cold, so I figured I could wear the jacket on the plane, and that would be the first thing she sees me in. The jacket, a plane fitted white t-shirt, and a pair of jeans with brown boots. It's definitely a very sharp jacket, but I'm afraid this could go terribly wrong. I don't want to be that guy getting pointed at and people saying, "WTF is he wearing that old-school bomber jacket for?"

Is it a bad idea to wear it? Are bomber jackets fashionable/stylish, or will I look like some kid posing as his favorite character from Top Gun? Does the outfit sound stupid?

This is almost identical to mine, but mine is a bit darker brown, and mine fits me perfectly:) :
