I will have to disagree with you. I know quite a few 'aerobatic' aces who like to dress up. I understand that Mr GA , Capt Airlines and Flt Lt Airforce can't stand each others guts, but there are some of pilots who fit into more than one category. For example should G-V capt have to change out of his uniform if he wants to fly his c-152 for an hr after a boring day at work b4 heading home?
Another question. If i were practicing unusual attitudes, engine failures or aerobatics in a C-152, is it unreasonable for me to wear a helmet and a flame retardent outfit?
There are a few experienced "aerobatiNauts" who think that aerobatics without a helmet is irresponsible.
By the way I see a lot of bikers dress up in full gear and nobody slags them off when they walk throug town.(maybe i should give up and become a biker).
