USAPA Uniform Survey
 
Looks like nothing has been decided on. Usapa just put out a survey on what we would like. It does bother me that there is a vote for "mandatory" items. I don't think there should be tyranny by majority but never the less we're being given a choice.

Vote smart and don't be selfish in your opinions. If you want to wear something and think it looks good make it optional don't force.

Majority rules. The consolation for the minority it the right to still whine. :D

Who needs a survey? Just figure out what Hummel wants and you can be guaranteed that the CLT and PHL reps will be against it and it'll get stalled at the BPR level.

The survey is in response to a resolution that was brought (I think) by PHX and was pretty widely supported by the board. The union didn't get any feedback on the company's uniform survey and wanted to get a good idea of what our pilots wanted. They'll take it to the company and APA. It may not make a lick of difference in the long run, but I completed the survey and I'll give USAPA credit for trying to do the right thing here.

Truthfully it won't matter too much, but I would like it black so I can still were my Sears polyester machine washable pants with my Brooks Brothers black wool overcoat.

I don't know why there is even a question about all this. We're supposed to "adopt and go" to all of Americans ways so why don't we just take their uniforms and "go"? Buying 5000 uniforms is better than 15000. Plus there is nothing wrong with the current Aa uniform.
