I've thought twice about whether to post on this one...but hey, in for a penny

I wear an RAF gro-bag all the time when flying...but then there isn't the trouble p**s taking with ones peers as the majority of friends at the Club are Gro-bag wearers! Its sensible...its nomex, lightweight, comfortable, arm pocket for pens and chinagraph, other pockets for keys, sunglasses, torch etc etc....mines a FJ type so I have a seperate knee pad, but despite that I wouldn't fly without it. RAF issue leather gloves, boots and socks too. And no, I don't feel a pratt!

...and I drive home in it.....but then around here, no one looks twice at a green (or black) gro-bag ! (Now stands back and awaits flak to fall in my direction )
