Default Cargo pilots wearing leather jackets

A quick question to you freight dogs, which carriers besides FedEx allow their pilots to wear leather jackets? For those that do, what brand?

Thx!

Polar & Atlas , now united and American are doing it too... it has to do with the alternative lifestile chosen by their CEO'S and their love of leather and spanking. we will be getting leather cuffs and ass-cut-out pants soon.

You know what those are for, right? If not, just ask any Delta, UAL, USAir, or NW pilot.

Check out Pop's.

They're located in Incirlik, Turkey and been making jackets for US pilots for many many years. You'll get a great custom jacket at a price you can't find anywhere else.
