It was the first of a 2 day trip, and I only brought that shirt. I really need to learn how to sew on button...

They are Abbotts! The first one, I heard something go clink clink clink on the floor when I released my harnesses after takeoff... couldn't see what it was. I figured it out when I went on my walkaround on next leg and saw my epaulet flopping in the wind off my shoulder. DOH.

No wait, it was day one of a 4 day, on the Mad Dog (of course) I caught my pant leg on a sharp edge of the center console, put a nice 3" rip just below my knee. At the next stop, I called for MX to bring some duct tape to the cockpit. I worked a 4" piece up my pant leg from the inside to patch the rip. Lasted the rest of the trip!
Never underestimate the power of Duct Tape!

I utilized the safety pin underneath to secure my epaulet this last time. Worked pretty good. I told my wife for our 5th anniversary this last week her gift was to learn how to sew buttons.
Or maybe I didn't.

Obviously you need some remedial training on how to release your shoulder harness!
You have to go over the epaulet, crusty epaulets are a sign of experience!
I still wear my original ones from upgrade 12 years ago!!Denny
