A CFI I knew got burnt quite bad after a fairly bad accident. The shock of seeing him months afterwards made me always consider my clothing from then on. I understand a lot of his injuries were a result of his polyester clothing just melting in to his skin.

A shame that in GA so many other pilots consider you a ****** if you go the full nomex flight suit route.
