I think its important to look the best we can, whether its on duty in uniform or hanging out with your friends. I don't know about anyone else but it even makes you feel better about yourself.

I wish the airlines in the U.S gave their pilots nicer uniforms, something a little different, maybe higher quality. Most other places in the world have higher uniform standards, and everyone including the Flight Attendants looks better. Regardless of what they fly.

Some pilots refer to eachother as nothing more then glorified bus drivers, etc. etc. If we don't respect our selves and what we do (and the way we look reflects that) then how can we expect anyone else to respect us or what we do? The majority don't think that way anyways from what I can tell.

Just my .02
