I am considering changing over to wearing my flight suit for my western/mountain flying next season. Lots of zippered pockets that won’t lose stuff in a bailout. Consider surplus if you can find it. Back in my flight test days, the company would issue me one for each test program, but they never had my size. I found one long ago at a surplus store that fit perfectly. $20 if I recall correctly, it was a steal.

Down here in the great COVID state of Florida I wear baggy comfortable shorts, commando style, a nice Tommy Bahama shirt, comfortable Sanuk shoes and a floppy hat with a Margaritaville button on the side.

And my favorite drink after towing or flying sailplanes is Rum and Coke with a twist or two of lime. Preferably Ron Matusalem. Gran Reserve 18 year or Frigate 10 year old.
