Default Proper Attire II

This is a thread I posted about 18 months ago. I'm kind of bored today, and I figured since 18 months ago we've added about 100,000 new members, so in the spirit of holiday cheer, I thought I'd bring it back for all to enjoy.

I have recently noticed that Combat Fliers wear Hard Hats, and it makes me wonder...

Seeing as how the rest of their attire is comprised of shorts and a T-Shirt, a hard hat would do little to protect you if you were hit by a plane. Therefore, the hard hat must simply be worn to signify the fact that they are Combat Fliers.

Then I got to thinking...

Since there are many different aspects of the R/C hobby, maybe we should ALL wear some article of clothing to signify which field we participate in.

For example... The guys that fly 1/2a could wear a hat like this:




While the giant scale fliers could wear...



Maybe Pylon fliers would like something that looks fast!



While the Sport flier would prefer a more casual look...



The Jet heads would need something with a turbine...

Hey Vicman--you need a faster shutter speed for the "Flash", all his pictures are blurred.

How's your rocket powered foamie Hornet project going?
