Not sure our pilots will be too pleased with this. What do you think?

I'm all for change but a two piece flight suit sounds counter to all the safety reasons we were told a one piece jumpsuit was the best for aircrews in accident scenarios. I recall at least one time right after we changed from cotton to the current nomex flightsuits that a two piece option was brought up and it got a huge thumbs down from SAC at least, for safety concerns.

I agree Sir, I wore Nomex for years in plants, one piece is best I think.

SSG Donald H "Don" Bates Switch from cotton to nomex made sense, this doesn't!

Lt Col Charlie Brown, is there a photo of the 2PFDU? Maybe I missed it, but I couldn’t find one.
