Indeed 'puken. Makes you wonder if anyone in the policy department (dresses etc) has ever looked up the definition of 'uniform'. I reckon you could have a parade with no two people wearing the same iteration of blues. Of course, some should continue to sport flying boots, preferably former bona mates, resplendent with zips. There are at least 3 different wolly pullies to choose from; the delightful nylon jacket, the blue leather one (Jehovah!), Geltex, son of Geltex, rain coat (sorry, I gave mine back) and one of the old stalwarts is bound to have a great coat kicking around somewhere. Throw in some Akrotiri shirts circa 1992 in a totally different shade of blue and you should have a veritable cornucopia of 'uniform' personnel.



As for me, I shall just be pulling on the same garb as every other pilot in the company (number of stripes variable), though we do get to choose between a proper tie or a clip on one. Makes life so much easier.
