I think the VX f/a's looks great. And kudos to the airline for trying to make their product even more visually appealing than it already is. But Im not a fan of the current VX pilot uniform and dislike the new one even more. It looks gay! There, I said it. I hate to use that word to describe it because I have no problem whatsoever with gay people. But if you asked me to describe the uniform in one word, that is absolutely the first one that comes to mind.

I prefer a traditional uniform even with a hat, although my current company doesnt make us wear one.

That dark gray/black uniforms look like they copied the uniforms from Star Wars Death Star crew.

All that pilot needs is an appletini and Cher's greatest hits. Oh wait, he may not be gay! Could'nt tell from that uniform. The FA's (female) look pretty hot though.

The grey on grey outfit looks like a school janitor uniform.

Personally, I would feel embarrassed every time I had to walk by another airline pilot and would probably just wear a tie anyways. The guys I fly with already talk enough $#!% about their current uniform.
In my experience as a VX pilot, the appearance of my crew has given me a feeling that is quite opposite to that of embarassment. Probably something to do with the hot young women we get to spend time at work with. BTW, I haven't missed the hat and tie once.

I bet the TSA is going to be really confused with those new uniforms.

"What do you mean you're a pilot and you don't wear a tie?"

That being said, I like the dark colored uniform shirt. It wouldn't be as noticeable when I spill hot sauce on myself.
