The hats look very professional and command respect. I wear my hat and button my blazer and it's remarkable how differently you get treated by virtually everybody, from pax to gate agents to fellow pilots, yes even the double breasted set. I highly recommend getting and wearing a hat.

I have a sweater and I really like it. It can get a little warm on those long flights with the sun on your side or if you're also wearing your overcoat and trucking through the airport to catch a dead head or something. Also, while it isn't bad looking, it is not approved for mainline so it's basically the "regional sweater". Anymore I prefer

Thanks. Rant over 😜
