Airline Pilot Central Forums - Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?

These guys are great. I was unsure of my size so I called them. He told me to send him a measurement and they custom made a hat to fit me. Very good quality hats, too. Plus, they're comfortable!

Premier Hat Co.

I second. By far the best hat I've owned. I wasn't aware they made custom sizes though... good to know!

What are you willing to give up for that? Kind of reminds me of the rest facilities and how the issues cumulate into leverage. Much often, the pilots losing something valuable to get something of safety necessity.

This isn't a want, it's a necessity, and precedent doesn't excuse it. Other airlines get it, and I think this is time for some smart Project guy or an ALPA guy that want to make a name for themselves to steve up and solve this.

Any of you ever buy a delta pilot hat over the world wide Web? I need a new one.

You're one AE out from making the big bucks--your current one is fine. If you lost it there are some in the commuter room that look like they've been left behind from a recently retired FO. Time for FTB to make the jump!:D

My head is gigantic. I have the second to last hat size from Crew Outfitters.

My kids were playing in my car and crushed it. It's got gorilla tape holding it together. It can make it at least another year. After all I am an airline pilot.

Thanks. I'm going in. I will test their measurements.

I've tried to buy a new hat for about the past 3 years, seems every time I'm in any of our concourse crew stores in ATL or MSP, they are out of my size, all they have on the shelf are very small or very big sizes. The few times I've found one in my size (7 1/4) they have had a terrible fit or feel them.

Let us know if you are happy with this hat and if their sizing is correct, the price seems fair if it fits. I'm hesitant to buy a hat without trying it on first, unless they have a 100% return/replace policy with free shipping. ;)

Timbo.

The hats they sell at Flight station will start to fall apart after a month!

Bancroft made a good hat and they might still sell them there, but the other (?) brand is garbage!
