Cjcampbell,

You know, a lot of countries still require pilots to wear uniforms.
Even private pilots.


Name one, please.

Don't have personal knowledge about private pilots, but I remember being
astonished to see the ski lift attendants wearing impeccable uniforms in
Austria a number of years ago. I think some sort of convention of dress adds
to respect (and yes, I have been following the thread and understand the
point that we rarely see controllers.)

Dress is often used to hide incompetence.

Is that why France considers itself the fashion hub of the world?

Don't forget the once a week shower and wearing the same clothes all week.
Fridays got rather disgusting and these were professional people.

I don't know, but all those fat Americans in trunk-sized shorts and
t-shirts look plenty incompetent to me.

Yep, I can spread stupid slander about other people just as well as
you can

B,

These jokes from a country where "French Fries" were actually renamed
"Freedom Fries" in government establishments just because France
opposed a war that has turned out to be wrong and a desaster for
exactly the reasons France and other countries cited at its start,
well, these jokes are not really funny, to me. But I'm just one of
those oversensitive Old Europeans g.
