Yep. Right until the cheap metal backing falls off and you bleed out over SJU from the prongs

They do have plastic backings they sell in the uniform store and those things actually hold the wings in place. I use them on the blazer. I mean, "suiting jacket."

I exchanged the shirts they gave me for the VHs no questions asked. they didn't offer me the embroidered wings but no biggie considering they didn't charge me for the exchange (he said it was a few dollars per shirt to upgrade to the VHs). Even with the tapered VHs I still had to have them taken in and I'm no model of physical fitness. The pants and leather jacket are fine but everything else is a joke. I guess they're catering to the plus sized pilots out there.

Yeah, my shirts are huge too.

Now figure out how to us the leather jackets and I'll be happy. I called to see if I could order one, but they said no. Now I'm stuck with the wool p-coat.

Embroidered.....I expect nothing less from an Army guy! 14 in a row you may have a chance this week since the starting QB and RB are out. Back to the Metal wings convo!

Metal wings? Way too much work for this guy. Hoping you play us like you played temple and we might have a shot. We have a way of blowing it though...clearly.

Trying hard to get a call. 3500 total time, 800 TPIC, line check pilot,1 internal. All turbine time is turboprop. Headed to a job fair in January, hopefully that helps.

They weren't in the actual store but he had them shipped to the training center and I received them before I was done with training.
