How many pilots wear their hat doing the walk around??????? NONE. Public Eye. Ramp is not Public Eye, Don't care that passenger can look out window and see you. Don't mater.
They probably got all in their feelings because it was a North Face jacket. Wearing a black “The North Face” on the walk around has basically become a meme at Delta. I have no idea why our pilot group specifically loves that jacket so much. Monkey see, monkey do?
