Oh man...grabs popcorn! FB is going to be good tonight.

Glad I didn't lift a finger on the new jacket stuff. Procrastination pays off today!

"it brings with it too much variation in how we are presenting ourselves around the system."

What? Have they ever looked at FA uniforms? Let the people have what they want. Now instead they'll have 50% double-breasted and 50% who forgot their jacket for 4 months and have to wear North Face instead...

That’s really too bad, because I was hoping another 20 or 30 pages of back and forth would’ve solved the “leave one button unbuttoned (top or bottom?) or button them both style question once and for all.

Cant believe I am actually saying this, but can we just have the option to keep our old 19th century steamship Capt blazer? I must be suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, but if we’re going all in on DB, let us have the option to leave well enough alone. The devil you know, and all.

Is the person in charge of Delta’s IT program the same person in charge of the uniform process???

The meltdown on FB is pretty entertaining. I'm not sure what's more funny, the guys who are glad we don't look like the "commuter types" or the people who are upset at the people who think the SB makes us look like commuter types. 🤣

I may regret asking, but where would one go if one wanted to view such entertainment (for someone not familiar with the socials). Is there a main Delta pilot FB page or something? Or were you referring to Skynet (not gonna sign up for that)?

TIA

I stood up and clapped after reading that powerful message. It was a tribute to the Delta Brand and the Will of the Delta Pilots. The single breasted jacket was a travesty to our image and our tradition. It was like the Yankees getting a home uniform "option" without Pinstripes. Thank goodness it is being discontinued with more inclusive double breasted options being explored.
