Default No wings on?

I've noticed some pilots walking through the terminal with no wings on. It's very odd and I'm curious as to why. Is there an airline whose uniform has no wings? Are some pilots pulling their wings off to conceal their employer?

If it helps, the epaulets are always some other color than gold. They are either grey or silver, maybe white. I'm not 100% on the other color, but it's definitely not gold. Either way, the uniform is obviously incomplete without wings.

Anyone?

US Airways doesn't have wings on the shirts - only the blazer.

Ok, great! Thanks everyone. It's so odd though! If I worked for one of those companies I'd probably be that legendary guy that was repeatedly called into the chief's office for "accidentally" putting a pair on my shirt lol

Same with RAH. I think a lot of regionals are like that.
