Food for thought
So, some people would rather bow to peer pressure and p1ss taking and not wear suitable safety clothing.... Are those same cheeky b@stards also going to make fun of you if you turn up to the flying field with visible burn scars?
Tony crashed his Bronco at Kemble recently, and he is having quite a hard time in hospital and is still getting skin grafts. However he was wearing a helmet, nomex, and some cotton undergarments - without which his injuries would definitely be much worse. Just maybe this saved his life.
Whilst on this subject, why do pilots insist on wearing those flammable/melting reflective fluro 'safety' vests whilst still inside the aircraft? It not only reflects making instruments to see - and will make you cry when it melts onto you.

Reason: Wrong Airfield...
