Ah yes the new Flexjet uniform compliments the equipment and shows the respect Flexjet Management has for its crews. The yellow tie that so easily stains and falls apart mirrors the stained and worn falling apart carpet in the airplanes. The pealing finish on the leatherlike belt accentuates the pealing paint of the airplanes and the "genuine milspec" simulated A2 bomber jacket speaks volumes of what the Flexjet management thinks of their crews to provide them with a thin uninsulated jacket for winter use. Only the best. The crews look so professional in their grey mechanics shirts soaked in sweat stains or rain during the summer and shivering in the winter without a proper winter coat.
"genuine milspec"? He wants milspec when (from Wikipedia) In the U.S. during the 1980s and early 1990s, it was argued that the large number of standards, nearly 30,000 by 1990, imposed unnecessary restrictions, increased cost to contractors (and hence the DOD, since the costs in the end pass along to the customer), and impeded the incorporation of the latest technology. Responding to increasing criticism, Secretary of Defense William Perry issued a memorandum in 1994 that prohibited the use of most defense standards without a waiver.[SUP][3][/SUP] This has become known as the "Perry memo". Many defense standards were canceled. In their place, the DOD encouraged the use of industry standards, such as ISO 9000 series for quality assurance (see COTS), SAE standards such as the AS and AMS series (e.g., AS9100, AMS 2404). Are we moving backward?
