After briefly reading through your posted article, probably the contrary. Now those tools with the “arm tattoo sleeves” will be able to wear short sleeve pilot shirts. Go United! So diverse! 🙄

Uniforms keep everyones dress code relatively the same for the most part . With this new idea , there will be a lot of people that will bend the rules beyond what is allowed.
Fa’s and pilots with nose rings and visible tattoos will not be a good look . Don’t know how the flying public will respond to this .
But hey , bring back the pork chop sideburns and porn mustache , fu man chu’s while you’re at it .
Thats diverse right ???

Here's hoping this gets the ball rolling in being allowed to FINALLY join all the other pilots in the world in sporting beards/goatees.

If you want to test things. Show up wearing the female hat. It’s pretty.

Hats are restrictive and don't allow me to express my hair. Which I'm about to dye "rhapsody blue".

We should be more like cruise ship officers. No ties and no hats, plenty of stripes though.

Ties only in winter with the jacket. Basically Guam.

​​​​​​You know... Since we're changing everything.

United pilots haven’t worn hats for years. The only part of the uniform that matters is the ALPA pin.
