Best and Worst dressed pilots

[waveflyer]

They are so cool TSA has the same ones now.

is it still considered witty if you're the 2nd person and a day late w/ the comment?

 

[BID]

weren't you going to get an interview at United or something?

You honestly can't be for real. flame bait, total flame here.

 

[waka]

I know that pilot uniforms are based on maritime uniforms but, Delta pilots look like a bunch of Captain Steubings! The double breasted jackets look goofy.

I agree on Lufthansa uniforms and FA's. I also like the latest UPS uniforms.

All of the FA's @ Singapore are smokin'!

I cant believe nobody has said it yet, MESA Sucks!!!

The award for the best dressed pilots goes to Mesa for their blue wrinkled dockers and purple windbreaker. Add the, i just slept on a purple board in the plane look for additional points.

What about an over-sized aviator watch? Nothing comforts a nervous passenger like seeing a pilot walk up to the gate with a huge watch with about seven sets of hands and an E6B bezel. The only thing that would be better is if someone could design one with a sextant built into it somehow.

 

[Oh-ryan]

pocono's all flame. and you guys bite way too much

I think we should have more bling so the shorter among us aren't confused w/ the flight attendants-- wings- maybe extra stripes for years of service to industry and others for company- other stripes for hours flown- a bar on our chest for every type rating-- sounds gay- but the public values experience- maybe if the public could actually see the difference between a pilot out of college and a 20 year veteran, they'd put pressure on the outsourcing.

(yeah- i'll repeat that it's gay-- but if we could do it discretely enough and it helps our leverage....)

oh-- good shoes, shined up before every trip-- new shirts- iron w/ starch- they make the travel cans so you can bring it along... it's really not hard- hang up your pants- and dont' get them shiny over-ironing them- just get the wrinkles out from behind the knees and keep the crease that the dry cleaner put in.

and i still want patches for the leather jackets(!)

Whoa. Whoa. Easy there partner. Extra stripes? Bars? Patches? That's a lot of pieces of flair.

Check out channel 9. Breast exam.

All of you forgot the 2 most important things...a fake rolex and an undershirt. I used to fly with a guy that wouldnt wear a t-shirt under his uniform shirt and he had dark nipples...guess what happened in the middle of summer when he would sweat??? Yup, wet t-shirt contest baby...and not the good kind.

You know PoconoPilot is a female, right?

or at least wants to be....

While I was laughing I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Another thread about the Captain Steubing costumes they make us wear???

Gay? or Girl?

The C152 straight to E145; XJT CA IAH; Horse Avatar didn't give it all away?

Don't forget CAL wannabe! Right up until he/she "turned down" their offer, that is.

So just how long were you at Mesa anyway? The purple windbreaker had to be at least 12 years ago . . .

 

[BID]

I agree.

With all the retirements, CAL could be the most secure major out there. Also, there is a good chance that CAL will be the highest paid eventually with a new contract.

I hope to be there soon.

Were effin Airline Pilots, not GQ models.

How friggin stylish do you need to look when you cross the friggin pond 5 times a month and a nice average commute.

Were not fashion models.
That being siad use some common sense, but it boils down to this...

Fly yer darn airplane, and fly it safe. The rest is minutiae.

 

[jws717]

Ummm...not the Lufthansa FA's that I have seen there over the years. Unless you like brut & hairy German women.

You are insulting the land of Hedi Klum, Claudia Schiffer and Octoberfest! How dare you good sir.

Who cares - I'll where a sombrero and a speedo to work, just pay me!

I think I can speak for most of us here when I say there should be a law against Speedos unless you can challenge the World and Olympic Records in a 50 meter pool.

 

[FlyByNight1]

lol, ok maybe the speedo thing was a stretch, but I was trying to make a point... That being said, when drunken Marco-Polo becomes an event, Im in..
