Dressing up.

In winter a 20 year old leather jacket with a pair of tiny AOPA wings pinned to the collar. And jeans.

Mid seasons a green ex Italian Airforce flying jacket I was given from a real airforce pilot with my name patch and a Airforce SM260 patch (I have had the good fortune to fly a military one and am proud of it). And jeans.

On flying club tours to Europe of more than a week we all wear flight overalls because pratical and helps getting through airport security.

In summer ... just shorts. If you can stand the sight I can post a picture.

If I get to fly a C206 down to Kenya soon I will get a white shirt and as many bars possible: I believe it is mandatory for airport authorities to recognize you as a pilot.

And I will probably enjoy it.

But I will never wear them to the club, or worse, to town
