lol that’s funny! Now on their next video they need to replace her stethoscope with a Dave and Clark headset.

Symbian, your in charge of this one...We need to get this in Black with yellow stripes on the sleeve, show the CP and get this approved now. Imagine how great this will be for red eyes.

Sincerely,
20% of the pilot group

Exactly.

And the answer should “where are your epaulets and wings? They are required on the Karbon jacket and your NorthFace doesn’t have them. Do you wear your required shirt without epaulets and a tie when at work? Now stop being too cool and get an approved uniform”

Oh man, I can only imagine how many guys bought the Karbon and are not wearing the required epaulets and wings with it.

But in the end, management created this uniform mess, they can clean up the compliance. It’s clear pilots can’t police themselves so sadly it’s time for the company to treat us like children

Anyone notice that the Karbon outer only is $209 but at karbon.com/southwest it’s only $174.

What gives? Same jacket?

Frankly everyone who bought the Karbon jacket is getting played. We're supposed to get paid uniforms. Yet you guys gave away that piece of the contract the second you got the opportunity. It's obvious the reason management has made this jacket "approved but not approved" is that they want us to wear it but they don't want to pay for it.

My vote is for the hoodie that Symbian posted. I’m custom ordering mine today.

You want to know what a Ultra-low cost pilot that makes ultra-low wages really looks like? Just wait till you see me walk down the terminal.

We’re high value pilots now, ultra low cost was dropped a year ago.

Which is why I'll keep wearing my $30 NF look alike.

Or you could wear the blazer or leather which are approved and paid for by the company.
