Won't go down too well in the flightdeck Im afraid
Amen to that.
And this is where some of the "top" FTO's risk falling down with some (by no means all) students. All the arguments (for conformity, discipline etc) aside for uniforms, there are going to be some who leave the Oxbridge of FTO's at a very young and impressionable age, with an "I'm a better, more superior guy than the next because of where I went" bug soooo far up there own ar*se that apart from the company who is contracted to take cadets, many others will not touch them with a barge pole. Its all about attitude no?
