GB's pilots shop at Essendon used to flog T-Shirts with five gold bars etched on, plus gold wings and a pair of sunnies sticking out of a pocket -all etched on. I gave one of these T-Shirts to the President of Pleasant Island in the Pacific and he was delighted -saying he had always wanted to outrank the 4 bar pilots of his 737's. A few locals wore them with pride on a couple of other Pacific islands. The T-Shirts, that is.
