yep.
do'nt really see what the problem is..are we really debating why its better not do wear hi viz just because we never did so before...??
why is it a big deal to see and be seen.
we put on lights for taxi and take off and landing so we stand a better chance of being seen...
we put on a shirt though we did'nt always ( ask the cave dwellers.!)..so what is the problem about something that weighs so little ( now if they ask us to start wearing a hard hat even i might object ..
)...and might just prevent injury.
its hardly a major earth shattering thing to put one on while you are out around the ramp even at the flying club....just because you never did so before...
all things move on...some for the better, but if it helps in just a few cases prevent death or serious injury even at the small flying field, who as a responsible pilot could object.
