You be sooooorrry stallie...............:sad:

Don't buy, steal. What kind of a poor GA pilot are you??:8
Or even better paint them on. Then you can always add a few bars later.:E

GB's pilots shop at Essendon used to flog T-Shirts with five gold bars etched on, plus gold wings and a pair of sunnies sticking out of a pocket -all etched on. I gave one of these T-Shirts to the President of Pleasant Island in the Pacific and he was delighted -saying he had always wanted to outrank the 4 bar pilots of his 737's. A few locals wore them with pride on a couple of other Pacific islands. The T-Shirts, that is.

We call them w*anker bars at my school. The more you have, the more of a w*anker you are. Gold wings are my pet hate. What do they mean?????

squawk 7700,

that is because you are at a school!!!;)

Congratulations Stallie,

:ok:

Squawk you call them w@nker bars but you secretly wish your school made them an essential item so you could wear them too. Admit it...

In WA, charter pilots usually wear 3 bars. If you're some kind of two-crew capt then wear 4. If you're an instructor at some dero club, wear 2 unless you're a CFI or CGI, then wear 3. The CP wears 4 at the flashier dero clubs. I think that's how it works.

Wings? Someone said "do they even mean anything???" or something equally stupid.

Of course they mean something. If your company has wings then wear them with pride and a sense that you are better than normal people, they mean "you can fly" and are licenced to do so. Not really, but that's what people will think and if they try to cr@p on your sense of accomplishment then fcuk 'em.

If your boss ain't got wings then who cares, don't go buying some chook-wings from the aero-shop as they won't mean much at all, I suppose.

But don't let tools like Squawk make you feel like a "w@nker" just because you do what most pro-pilot employers in Aust expect you to do - wear fruit on your suit.

Just please don't wear it to the pub/deli/coles supermarket/etc...

I really hope this is a wind-up otherwise you have some serious issues son.

TL

The only wings worth wearing are silver ones anyway.....................:} :}

At your Airline:yuk: :8 :}
Does your boss make your wear your ****** bars whilst scrubbing planes for hours on end. You do have an affinity towards them. I remember when you first met "Clear Props" mum and when your eyes met for first time, the stars in the kimberley came into alignment and the rainbow serpent blessed you both with with a lovely young lad who to this day runs around oombie with that distinctive "shire boy gold locks" and he wears 4 bar epaulettes just like his daddy did flying the old c206 on the oombie wyndam run.

What about brown wings.... do they count?? :ooh: :ooh:

this thread deserves 5 stars, however..........
