Only authorized if you park in the out and back lot

Funny how the hat police at Brown loosen up during Christmas. For the past 20 years + our Flight Ops Admin department sells custom Christmas ties for uniform wear. For $25 you can get an unusually ugly tie with proceeds benefiting the Angel Tree.

I'm talking about seriously ugly ties some years! This years is BLACK with front end silhouettes of each aircraft type in white. A few years ties have actually been well done, actually festive. Not this years.

Can you say, "Tool?" Where do we get these guys?

Money-saving tip: buy a green tie, and you're all set for St. Patrick's Day as well!

Wore my festive tie in MEM AOC last Sunday, and was surprised to see no one else was celebrating the holidays like we've done (at least) the last 7 years. C'mon man--you folks don't need an FCIF to tell you that holiday ties are authorized between Thanksgiving and New Years Day, do ya?

And the Christmas tie goes well with the red and green Christmas epaulets.

I think you should all wear a pretty bow in your hair for Christmas, and Easter.

Uniform ties during the holidays make me sick.

But, if you are "sick" you will miss the opportunity to display your latest tie!
