I’m sure I’ve brought this up before, and I think I’m probably the only one concerned about this at all, but here I go again.
Is there any feasible way to put Luke in his flight suit during the DS briefing in ANH?
If it could happen, it would make it seem as if a short time has passed since our heroes arrived on Yavin and the Rebels have had some time to analyze the plans and Luke has had some time to prepare. And it would look very cool.
But would this even be a thing someone could do? Is it even something to hope for someday? Is it a dumb idea that nobody likes?

If Disney can make a CGI Tarkin, they can absolutely make a CGI flight suit for Luke. Thought if it were a fan effort, it would probably be easier to film someone in a flight suit precisely mimicking Luke’s movements. There would be some tricky rotoscoping/color work since we see his clothes behind the hair of other characters, but it’s technically possible.

It also makes more sense to have him in the flight suit, as you suggest. But I doubt that it would be worth the effort for most people. I certainly never noticed how odd it was until you pointed it out.
