I admit to being what some of you call a 'knob' (I wear one of these jackets) and flies what some of you call a 'spam can.'

And know what, you can insult me and my plane as much as you like. When pre-flighting I don't get cold, and when climbing in the jacket easily comes off to save bulk - working on the principle that that is what a heater is for. And I'd rather be flying a 'spam can' than sitting on the ground reading Pilot magazine dreaming of a more exotic machine.

The licence and plane were hard earned and I enjoy using both whilst wearing my jacket, frankly not giving a to$$ what anyone else thinks.

Good luck to anyone else who does the same.
