Uniform question for the WO's
Just curious, I notice some folks who came from the Eagles tend to wear black pants, not the AA uniform blue/grey pants. Just curious if that is what they wear at the Eagles. I had thought they wore the same uniform as mainline. Also, don't newhires get an AA uniform bought?
It's not every one, but just something that tends to stick out. IE, if the person is wearing black pants they came from an Eagle carrier. This is both male and female pilots.

But the ones that make me shake my head the most are the super tapered and 'fitted' uniforms that look like they're about to velcro rip it off and start a chip and dales dance at any moment... or maybe a singing telegram... I dunno... but it looks like fake pilot uniform for sure.
Haven't noticed the back pants thing. It wouldn't suprise me if someone bought something they thought would pass that was comfortable at JC Penny's. Probably harder to pass this time of year when you have to wear the blazer.

I laugh at the sweaters. I think most of them are too young to associate that look with Mr Rogers.

The silver ties are given to new hires and every pilot who was hired before that was a thing still wears the black tie. The company didn’t provide them or even tell them they were switching to a silver tie
