Blue used to be my favorite color.

It was a visual illustration that pilots were "blue collar" Union workers. The white shirt was supposed to make us think like management. Unfortunately, for a lot of guys that's exactly what happened.

Hopefully, the pilots have learned their lesson about that kind of thinking.

What do you all think? Both airlines seem to be great places!

Obviously, I have done my research, but until you are there, you don't know how it truly is.

Thanks

Hi D, I would also think about UPS or FedEx. You can live anywhere and they each have bases in the "West" Ontario and ANC-Brown, LAX and ANC-Purple.
Good luck to you.

Nothing wrong with the blue shirts and they look better than everyone elses generic white. The old Virgin America pilot uniforms were the best, of course it helped that it seemed like most of the Virgin pilots were in better shape compared to the average pilot.

Now if only B6 would get a new FA uniform set. Desperately needed. Delta has the lock down on great uniforms in that department.

I like the new HA uniform. The hit the perfect blend of traditional and contemporary IMO.

Purple for the win? Strange, but some FAs are extremely allergic to whatever is used to make those uniforms.
