Moosp,
" . . but several studies over the years have suggested that airline crew in a hat give out more confidence to the traveling public. Oh public..."
Can you point me in the direction of one of these studies. I have seen studies that indicate that the travelling public couldnt give two hoots what we wear, especially considering that they no longer see us.
Hats and ties and wings and gold bars are a display of old world thinking. Shouldnt we strive to evolve and adapt to a new world. Does revenue still work with an abacus?
