Default Hat vs. No Hat

As a new hire, I’m starting to realize a lot of pilots here are against wearing the hat. I’ve seen a few people wear it, but out of curiosity why are most people against wearing it? I think it symbolizes professionalism and it looks good.

Because North Face doesn’t make a hat.

Look professional by having a well tailored uniform, being physically fit, and having a sharp haircut.

Chicks dig pilots in hats.

Hats inside is a no-go, you learn that in the military and hats outside are a FOD risk on the ramp.
So that leaves the bus to employee parking.

This.

Wearing a hat inside goes against everything I have ever learned.

It’s one of the cheesiest looking hats out there. The brass/emblem is huge and it looks incredibly dorky.

As others have said, a well fitting uniform with shined shoes and a sharp hair cut is professional.

If hats are a big deal I’d have a look at Air Wisconsin or Compass, possibly Endeavor as well.

To each their own. If it’s important to you buy one at $80-90.
