Female Pilots - Unprofessional?
"Retired" as in old fashioned? I'm sorry but anyone who truly believes something as superficial, simplistic and narrow minded as "polished shoes = polished flying" is not someone i'd like to fly with.
Appearance in interviews is a different matter. You are being judged, one amongst countless others and thus most employers will flush out anyone who isn't willing to put in the effort to try to impress.
You're right, it's important to think about what future employers might hear about you, but come on! They'd hardly turn you down because you wore flat shoes in flight school!!
