Mine got torn off by the lav door on the CRJ. With the pin gone I gave them to one of the kids that came up front before the flight. So that sparked an idea. I grabbed a handful, ripped the pins off, and hand them out. At least someone leaves the plane happy.

Used to be you could tell who the pilot was just by looking, wings or not...but nowdays we probably do need the wings to avoid confusion with bellhops, FA's, customer assist, TSA, etc.

Yes. Yes we turn our badges around because we are so ashamed to be seen. I actually stuff my down the front of my shirt because I am so ashamed to walk around the terminal and be seen by other really cool regional pilots.

Now back to the regularly scheduled programming....
