So.......on it goes. The never ending debate. I notice one contributor who implies that this thread is unimportant and Pprune should cover much more useful subjects.
I would say that this thread is what Pprune is all about.....Flying Trivia!
Ok, maybe not, but obviously ties have struck a chord, and if a chord can be struck, well bloody well loosen it!!!
As I mentioned before, I would say BAN the TIE. In winter it is invariably hidden under the jumper, and in Summer it is way to hot, or humid. Both conditions produce uncomfortable symptoms such as face bloat, Red Pigment embarrassed face look and sweat. It is hard to look cool (as instructors should) when your face resembles an award winning red turnip.
For those about to mention the more equitable conditions of Spring and Autumn, then ok, maybe. BUT WHY. They are uncomfortable garments from a bygone age which will only be missed by those of a similar vintage.
I look forward to offering birthday wishes to this thread....
