About Pilot

Since the brothers Wilbur and Orville Wright got their first working airplane off the ground in 1903, people have flied the blue skies for wars, mass transportation, and entertainment. Highly trained and skilled, pilots take to the sky manning aircraft such as airplanes, helicopters or gliders for pleasure or profession, such as a commercial or fighter pilot. In the early days of daredevil flying, the people who would walk out on the wings of the aircraft, while in flight, often doing aerobatic stunts were also called pilots. On large planes there is generally a pilot and a captain, who is the leader of the two.

Dressing up as Pilot

Take off in an airline pilot costume, complete with a pilot’s cap, tie and your very own wings! Just remember a rolling suitcase for those long-haul flights. If jumpsuits are your thing, or you and your best friend have dreams of being Maverick and Goose, earn your stripes as an Air Force or Navy pilot. Get the Top Gun look with a dark green zip-up flight suit with official navy patches complete with a retractable shield helmet. Whether you are inspired by characters in Top Gun or Airplane! a pair of aviator sunglasses really tops off the look for both outfits. For a complete vacation package, you’ll need to get a airline stewardess and some tacky tourists.
