I've seen one or two add pilot wings to the outside of the felt winter coat. Why would anyone want to do that? The only good thing about that coat is you can hide being a pilot.

For some guys it is REALLY important that everyone knows that they are the captain. They are the same ones who complain about lack of captain's authority, because they don't know how to be one.
