That's crazy talk. Don't bother getting it removed. It's costly and painful. You know how many prior military guys are airline people now? You'll be wearing a suit at the interview. You'll be wearing your jacket when in the terminal. The only time your forearm will be visible is sitting in the cockpit, and then who cares? I would certainly not disqualify someone based on a tattoo. I've heard they even hire women to fly! ohhhhh snap!
