Well here goes........ I know I will get totally flamed for this one. I am 47yrs old and I just think that as pilots we constantly demand respect for what we do. When we were learning to fly, we could not wait to wear a pilot uniform.
If we want to be treated like the professionals that we are, why not act and dress like one. Don't get me wrong, I like my shorts and flip flops too, but there is a time and place..........
