I like A Cut Above comfort wise, but I've noticed that the necks start getting black stains from either my lanyard or my jacket that the dry cleaners can't seem to get out. Anyone else have this experience? I have Crew Outfitters shirts as well, and they don't do this.

Also good form to look up the other pilot and let them know you will skip the DH so they are not waiting around at the van pickup.

Enjoy some bonus time!

Thanks, will do!

Don't wash in hot and line dry or dry on gentle if possible. They have the best neck liners anywhere.

Landerwoods will last forever, but are cut rediculously large (shirt sleeves look like pant legs, etc) and you have to do the iron on thing for your wing protectors yourself because its an old USAir holdover thing unless they recently changed it.

I visited their site and it appears the stretch is only available in "fitted." According to their guides, I'm just short of being a fitted kind of guy. That leaves me with the 2G in tapered. Is the 2G the "non no iron ones" referred to above? Also, has anybody tried the "stratus" (lightweight/easy iron) fabric?

I believe your question is rhetorical? If so, my apologies for responding in kind.

The CBA cannot "force" or ultimately "waive" an employee's right to privacy. It CAN, however, provide "CONDITIONS" contained within the CBA which make it extremely difficult (i.e. impossible) to remain employed at said Company, without offering evidence of "leave without cause". (e.g. The FOM doesn't "FORCE" you to wear your uniform a certain way, but makes it extremely difficult for you to remain employed if you so choose to wear it how you would choose.)

That Roll Tide sticker is the only thing keeping your man card valid right now. Pitch Perfect? Did you wife threaten to cut you off if you didn't go? Oh, you have little kids. You don't get that anyway. So you have no excuse....

88/90's, anybody else heard the rumor?

Seems to be going around that the 88/90's are slated to depart. No mention of timeframe or replacements.

Any more info or other versions of this one?

Well, it looks like the Russians have taken some tips from Moak Consulting and the DALPA posters here... or vice versa. Here's an example of an official internet troll-posting-factory. Exactly what I see on here every time some contract or LOA is about to get signed. So, it's a real thing...
