Question Can pilots have beards?

Sorry to darken your forum with the apparently 'not so important', but I have a job interview very soon with a medium sized carrier - I also have a very neat/short and tidy 'goaty' style beard.

In all seriousness, should I shave it off before the interview? I have to say that whatever your views about such facial hair, I have had it for years and no one has complained yet! In fact, my pals and wife think it would be a huge shame to get rid of it The only reason I am asking is because the subject matter of beards and pilots came up in the pub the other day, and it was mooted that you rarely see airline pilots sporting anything other than a neatly trimmed moustache (is that how it's spelt?) And even then, they tend to be of the x-RAF types.

Oh God, I know I'm going to get abused for this post....
