just because jackets are no longer required doesn’t mean you can wear whatever you want on walk around. If you choose to not bring your jacket and it’s 20 degrees somewhere then plan on wearing your short sleeve shirt. I’ve had several fo’s over the years bring sweater (not even black) and light jackets to wear. No go. Don’t put me in that position to have to act like your dad and tell you what you can’t wear. It’s not that hard.

For what? Enforcing our FOM required uniform policy? We all make 6 figures. Wear the uniform like required and there will be no issues. And packable light black jacket for walk around’s is a no go. That’s precisely what FO was wearing when LCA came to cockpit and chewed us both out about. The FO for not wearing an approved uniform and me for not enforcing the policy. If you tools have an issue take it up with your chief pilots and see how well that goes over. Now back to eating your fruit loops.

Lol I'm going to guess youre an ATL guy and the LCA was an ATL guy. Because I have yet to see anyone outside of ATL say anything to anyone about uniform appearance. I'll continue to wear my jacket when required, but the FOM says nothing about not wearing any other jacket. It just says the (tugboats captain jacket) must be worn Nov-Mar. So you and the LCA can get off your high horse.
