He has run out of people to tell ( Well in the Gulfstream we....... ) stories. Are you one of the G wiz guys who wear dress slacks, pressed button down shirts and ties to recurrent. I guess since I drive a lowly hawker and lear and wear jeans and teeshirts I'm piss huh? get bent.

Maybe a polo and dockers would help you land that Gulfstream job...

I'm a jeans and t-shirt kind of guy, too but you've got to adjust for prevailing conditions, if you know what I mean.

as usual TC is right....

Tshirt and Jeans are for the Hawker people, you might have to step up the game to some khakis and casual shirts if you gonna move up in life son.



Just dont go to the old crusty, no hobby outside aviation, typical d-bag corporate Grummanese pilot look.

And for gods sake - someone email Savannah (Mecca) and let them know that Smartphones are not fashion accessories.

sometimes these policies aren't set by the "line" pilots, but come down from on high.

Ok, I will take back what I typed. I was pissed at being over worked and was having a bad day. And there may have been a beverage or three prior to getting on the internet. I have respected what TC, G 200, and semperfido, have posted in the past. thank you for correcting me, because I'm not a D Bag in real life.
Cheers

...I'm not a D Bag in real life.
Cheers

But you can be here. And, THAT is the real beauty of Al Gore's invention.


TC

P.S.--Besides, if you couldn't be a D-bag on the internet, G200 would have to find a new hobby.

Nah, he can be a D-bag in real life when he gets bored with Al's interweb.:beer:

NEVER trust a pilot who claims he's not a D-Bag - especially if he flies a Grumman.

Thats like someone saying "we do things by the book".......Run like hell.

Wife beater and bermudas!

Tried to talk my co-worker into wearing a tube top and flip flops!

I've never understood professional pilots who refuse to, well, dress professionally when at a training event. Sure, what you wear doesn't necessarily reflect your aviating abilities...but first impressions are a M-Fer in business and doubly so in this industry.

I mean really, is the modicum of professionalism Dockers and a collared shirt provides really THAT much of an imposition?

 

[TMMT]

Try attending recur with AvBug... he smells like flame retardant, pesticide and axel grease, usually dresses in an Afghani Tombaan...

 

[Gulfstream 200]

From Learjet/Westwinds to Global Express/7X and a lot of crap in between still have never seen anyone show up at FSI standing out as sloppy.

Like salary, days off, and most other pilot topics - I think this flip flop and t-shirt thing is mostly trash talk on the internet.

Its not hard to find that happy medium between homeless/smelly and a wrapped too tight dork with a ProPilot lanyard and a Smartphone clipped to your waist.

But the Afghani Tombaan isn't too much or just showing your respect and acceptance to worldly cultures?

Thanks for a morning laugh!

Yeah, but you went to Purdue.
