Uniforms
#102
Perhaps we opt to continue dressing like professionals that the industry was founded upon. Dress casual enough and maybe people start to believe that what they are being informed of…one day, airliners will be safer with just the computers. The start to all of that is convincing them that one pilot is good enough with the new smart airplanes. Maybe go the other direction here. Keep the double breasted coat and add a aiguillette for the first officer. We will go crazy on Scope to protect our careers from JV ops, so maybe we should make sure the company and the people know that we are serious enough about the profession to keep us around as well. I’m definitely fine with continuing to pipe the Captain Aboard the Bridge.

The ‘pin’ comment was directed toward the broad ‘comply with any rule the company makes or else’ mantra that keeps getting thrown out, not about the uniform. The company can’t just make any rule it wants and demand compliance. Some freedoms do still exist in the workplace.

Tear the feathers out, ask for another, repeat.

The idea that a 100yr old design is tied to compensation is ludicrous. If then we want to stand above our peers I suggest full uniform for training and office work like foreign carriers do. Until then Envoy and Delta Private Jets will continue to carry our customers on the same delta.com ticket in uniforms fitting with the times.
