No one has a GF in Lima.... That would be poor judgement. GIG or BOG, would be better choices.

The only thing I’ve heard is that everyone gets the same wings. No more Captain’s wings.

The guys who go there five times a month aren’t exactly known for their “judgement” with women.

I almost find that hard to believe.

Do we get the same wings as the Flight Attendants? I mean why not carry that idea to the farthest extent possible?

Circa ~1998 until merger NWA only had one set of wings. The airmail globe. I guess that’s fine. I guess I never realized how little I cared about that.

Whatever.

Contract!!?

Time will tell.

UAL had the same wings for CAP or FO. It’s cheaper to have and stock one style. “Command Wings” for all pilots.

Anniversary pseudo-diamond Anniversary chips in each “Star” like before as well. I heard the FA’s will have that feature as well.

Whatever. As posted above....UPA is what matters.

After watching the uniform update on FT just now, I actually am now pretty sure what I saw was not the newest version of the uniform. The blazer actually has thicker silver braids than what I saw and the wings looked different. Have no idea if it was an old UAL uniform or belonged to another carrier.

FWIW, there is a uniform update in the latest Flight Operations Update (on the iPad) with a photo of the final pilot wings.

Yes, everybody gets the same ones.

And let me be the first to complain about how hideous they are! They look like they should be the new kid wings to hand out.
