Hey everyone. I heard USAFA discontinued flight suit Fridays (or in general if I'm not mistaken). Will cadets ever be able to wear them again to class?
 
Flight suits are for airmanship only. To include needing to change down at the air Field into the flight suits and once back up on the zoo you need to change back into UOD.
 
25ers got yelled at for being in flight suits during job drops, which up until the current leadership was a USAFA tradition. So don't expect to wear them for a while. After all, its proven that seeing cadets in blues three days a week scares China and is essential to our development! In all seriousness, this is the least of our current issues/concerns.
 
But I do remember how spiffy it was to wear a flight suit in the few times that was authorized. K2B's back then. Complete with pecker pocket. Sorry, ladies...but that was back when men were men and sheep ran scared.
 
I believe cadets are also able to wear flight suits when attending some sport events as spectators. That may have just been for a particular game/match.

Not really anymore. The uniform for football games this year has been either service dress or long sleeve blues, or OCPs for the one game where it was 35 degrees and raining
 
Are USNA mids issued flight suits? What abt USAFA cadets? Talking abt standard issue.
I think the aviation selectees get 1 green flight suit their senior year after service selection that they wear once a week at the academy

Then when they get to Pensacola, it’s back to wearing Khakis and NWUs until they pass the academic phase of NIFE and can wear the flight suit again. Oh also the USNA alums get issued 1 less green flight suit than the other flight students because they already were given one at the academy. So they are given 1 instead of the normal 2 at flight school gear issue
