PISTON PEASANT shirt

from $15.50
You'll never own a turbine. The avgas bill already hurts. Your "hangar" is a tiedown spot between a crop duster and someone's 1951 Cessna 140 that hasn't flown since gas was a dollar a gallon.

And you wouldn't trade it for anything.

PISTON PEASANT is a badge of honor for the guys who came to aviation late, learned the hard way, and still can't stop thinking about flying. You didn't get into this for the prestige. You got into it because something in your gut said you have to do this — and here you are, middle-aged, sweating through your headset, hand-flying an ILS in actual IMC in a 172 you co-own with three other guys named Dave.

The jet pilots have their carbon fiber. The kings have their King Airs.

We've got blue avgas, a handheld radio as backup, and the purest form of flight ever made.

This product is made especially for you as soon as you place an order, which is why it takes us a bit longer to deliver it to you. Making products on demand instead of in bulk helps reduce overproduction, so thank you for making thoughtful purchasing decisions!
