"I don't think too highly of non-pro pilots who wear a pilot uniform voluntarily"
I sort of agree, its like trying to be something you're not, too me those bars are earned through hard work, scraping every dollar for flight hours together, driving crappy cars or going without a car,and made it those pilots have my respect and have earned the right to wear the uniform, its almost like wearing a military uniform and never have served, ok Halloween is the exception, but it looks dumb and I would never sign up for a flight school that had me wear a uniform, how lame.
