Agreed. Hard to tell they are even pilots. At best they look like they just got out of a learjet. :)

Most third world dictators would agree. Larger flashier rank insignia makes the man.

See, I knew we'd find a brave UAL type who agreed with us !!

If you're are going to go bold and flashy you might as well go all the way!

Real original. Now quit making fun of the Delta uniform and get back on topic.

I feel sorry for all of the British Admirals out there who have to compete with the Delta uniform. Poor guys.

As the clown in the "NO FEAR" shirt would say....
"Go BIG, or Go HOME":cool:

Having worn both styles, I'll take UALs thin stripes over Central American Dictator or Soviet Union General gigantic brim hat fat any day of the week.

Effeminate, really? Sounds like you may have some other issues! ;)

I think we ought to wear Khakis and a decent shirt. For what they pay us now, shorts and flops. If the pay stub looks good, I don't care what the uniform looks like.

Why don't we all resolve to DO SOMETHING each and every time we can to give our union some HP and balls so we can carp about what to do with our retro checks instead?

This isn't rocket science. No waivers, no favors. No contract, no benevolence.

Perhaps so.

Are you busy tonight? ;)

Ah, His Excellency, President for Life, Field Marshal, Al Hadji, Doctor Idi Amin Dada, VC, DSO, MC, Conqueror of the British Empire in Africa in General and Uganda in Particular".

I thought I recognized him.

How about this for a uniform:

That's Frank Lorenzo in a Better Suit

One of our fellow CAL pilots is peddling these, if case you don't have enough baggage stickers.
