When I'm down the flying club or just visiting airports in general I like to look the part so that everyone knows I'm a pilot and they'll be really impressed.

What I normally wear:

- ' I'd rather be flying ' or classic ' Pilots do it inverted ' T-shirt
- Blue plasticy Transair Exclusive jacket with recently sewed on 'PPL' motif and Top Gun embroidered badge
- Mirrored Aviators (to look like Ice Man in Top Gun)
- FliteSlax (TM) 'Pants for Aviators' (Cheap pair of cargo-trousers re-badged for the aviation community and sold by Transair at 4x the price)
- Five stripes (well my mate hasn't even got his PPL yet and he wears four stripes)
- A baseball cap with the word 'Captain' stitched on for posing down at the airport.


I was just joking of course!!!

I just wear jeans or shorts and any t-shirt/jumper. The only aviation clothing I own is a jacket with the name of my flying club on. Oh and don't forget the trusty hi-vis.
