2014 Pilot Discussion

Polyester? 

 
Just the uniform standard underwear.

I thought this infantile and naive $h!t went out the door with ALPA/USAPA?  Guess not.  Guess what boys, its back to infantile, naive and stupid $h!t all over again.

You still have the same pilot group, why would you suddenly expect them to grow up and act like adults?

 I think the LAA guys on the uniform committee are looking for something very traditional and military (including high-and-tight haircut...ladies, too.)  

 
I'd thought uniform standards for the "new American" had already been determined:

Not bad nyc, but the hat needs to be more durable and weatherproof, as well as projecting an image of authority and savior faire.

A both impressive and traditional look '84, but how well would it fit over the purple wigs?

I'm throwing the BS flag on this one.  So you mean to tell ME that the APA was PROMISED Delta wages......PROMISED?
 
Hey APA, what ever happened to that "transparency" view of unionism???  I guess the Obamacare/Gruber guy was the one who put the MOU all together.  What a "Leadership" crock of $h!t.

"At Delta, we believe long-term success requires that our people, customers and investors win together. We have always been committed to sharing with employees the success they help create."

"Profit sharing is just not the right way to pay 100,000 employees that just don't have that much impact on the daily profits, by the way."




Specifically, Doug Parker told APA: "When we make Delta profits, I'll pay you Delta wages.

Yes, and as far as that transparency where are those idiots from the Compass Correction Coalition "keeping our union honest"..........

Looks like they're aiming for parity with DAL in the uniform department anyway. I say we go DAL + 33% by having TRIPLE breasted uniform jackets.

Nice uniform, the stripes need to be wider though.

The origin of the new American pilot uniform  (from the APA board).

 

[EastUS1]

 
Well, that certainly offers the class, taste and elegantly "professional" style of "business casual" one must always expect from the parker crowd, but I'm still opposed to the apparently mandatory hat.

Hats = Nuisance enough...I ain't carryin' any conductor's baton around!...Just sayin'...

Given the backdrop I can understand the confusion but that's a First Officer prod.

It's a Q-tip for airheads.
