Glider Pilot Dress Code
So, how should you dress for a XC flight, where you might land out.
Should you dress up in cool stuff to impress the locals - or dress in rags to get some sympathy ... or dress like a pilot (quasi military) to get some repect. Also, this may apply to underclothes as well ... you never know when you may wind up in someone's photo op ... I seem to remember a photo of Hank Nixon in his tighty-whities pulling his 27 out of a lake. KK |

I guess most of us hope to land out less often than we make it back to base, so the answer to this one is surely 'whatever takes your fancy'. Cycling lycra for example (including padded buns tee hee) would be just as acceptable as the more usual garb of worn old clothes, strange hats, and layers and layers of fleece for winter wave flights. Aside from our own prejudices of course. However... Also, this may apply to underclothes as well... *always* clean, at least to start with... |

Just because Kochanski can't keep his eyes off his partners butt, I
gotta get sucked into this thing! And they weren't white. Child molesters get forgotten sooner. UH- UH, as you approach your golden years and the legacy you leave for future generations, forget about your years as an instructor and tireless promoter of all types of soaring, your work with junior pilots, your contest record, your national championship, your presence on U.S. World Teams, and your winglets installed on gliders around the world. All anyone will ever remember is that one "landing" (splashdown?) and the photographic aftermath. Life isn't fair. Chip Bearden JB New Jersey, USA |
