It must be bad manners or something, because it makes some people very angry. One of them called me “stupid!”

The look is called “Aviation Casual”. It’s so hot right now. Get with the times. Flying goggles and flip flops, leather jackets and speedos etc etc.

I almost did it at Duxford last year. It was so warm, but one feels obligated to take an A-2... :cool: But... no.

You might not want to sell to this guy.
i wear a-2s with tan chino shorts, and i dont give a hoot as to anyones opinion about it. whats more, ive been doing it for many years. a perfect combo for an early am surf session, imo. dont like it? dont look.
Well said!

To each his own I say but, a def no no in my book. Anything with long sleeves for that matter I think looks a little odd when wearing shorts.

Well, since Steve is asking so nicely.... wasn't going to do it, but what the heck... and not just shorts, but swimming trunks mind you!!! This was Florida a year ago, I was so excited to receive my cable raincoat that I forgot what I was wearing under :) Now go ahead and have a good laugh! :)
