I don't get it. What's the hold up? I'm not against the jacket, I just don't understand the fanatical enthusiasm. I heard one Captain say he would vote no on any contract that got rid of the leather regardless of pay. Even with a significant raise he'd still vote no. I just don't get that. More money for your kids college fund, or a leather jacket.... He'd take the jacket.

I think the leather jackets are for military pilot wannabes anyways. "Look how cool I am! Check out the aviators I'm wearing in the airport with this awesome jacket."

I think the jacket looks tacky, and I also think the hat looks tacky as well. We are a business, so business professional is appropriate, when we become a military operation we can add all the rest of that crap.

This brings us to an important question, is the modern clown costume appropriate.

Well, I for one have no desire to be a military pilot, but I like leather jackets. Would choose leather ANY day over the pedophile coat.
