No Pilot Should Be a Deer In Headlights!

One of the simplest (yet incredibly important!) tools a pilot needs is a working flashlight. Pilots use flashlights on the outside of the plane during pre-check and also to see a sectional in the dark during flight. A pilot who doesn’t use a proper flashlight could risk the safety of themselves and their passengers.

We are here to provide you with an easy to read guideline to make shopping for Professional Pilot Wear stress free. No more comparing from screen to screen this shirt and that shirt… or getting the wrong shirt in the mail and then having to pay return fees, etc.
