I'd love to dicsuss that, but I really dont give a sh$t!!! Maybe your the tool for coming up with the question!!!

In these times of boredom when you wanna type this kinda of stuff online!! Pause for a few, think about it. Then go and grab a bottle of bourbon and relax! I am sure you will then come to your senses. In this relaxed state you are more likely to visit your favorite pornsite. Yes, now your going to do sooo much better, Then a real airline pilot you will have become!!

Nothing wrong with that at all, provided he's not in an area that requires a badge.

Now, swaggering around the terminal with a badge and no uniform? TOOL!

Yes, I'm talking to you, the two ExpressJet dorks I saw a few months ago in FLL in cargo shorts, flip flops, and your XJT IDs swinging from your necks. Holy crap, you looked dumb. If you want your 10% off your Chili's food, you can pull the ID out at the appropriate time. But strutting around the terminal with it hanging around your neck just makes you look cheesy.

Is it okay to be in full uniform and not be a pilot while sitting in coach?

or is that a toolish thing to do??!!

...although said passenger has 2500TT/1500 PIC TJ/1600 ME in MSFS and has been flying the virtual line for 3 years.

I say give that man a first class upgrade! (i kid), what VirtualAir is he the commander of that hes too modest to show his 4 bars and a star? :smash: (I love how all these VirtualAir carriers create ranks that dont exist in the commercial aviation world, let alone give them military style insignia, no I am not a part of this fiendish hobby, I may be a MSFSer but I don't take it to that level of geekdom).

Well that is a lil overkill but hey, showing up in uniform never did hurt anyone in my mind.

What kind of badge are you talking about? I always travel non-rev in uniform so the TSA goons won't rumage through my bag and take my toothpaste that has more than 4 oz. As for an ID - how else do you get to the front of the line without displaying it? If the flight is a long one I might change out of the "goon suit" and get comfortable.

My $.02

Baja.

BTW - A tool is a kook who wears his uniform outside of work or while driving to work. Nothing worse than seeing a guy/gal in Costco in full uniform. Just LAME!!

Agree, you are a tool if this bothers you.

Do you not put on your uniform untill you arrive at the airport?

I wear shirt w/out bars, pants and shoes until I get to the security and then throw on the bars and clip-on tie. I get through secirity and take the tie back off until I leave the crew room. I live by the rule - "No ties outside of country." I'm not "proud" to wear the uniform. I'd wear a clown suit if that's what they paid me for - but I wouldn't wear it until the clock started ticking.
