What do the stripes on a pilot's uniform mean? Ever notice the epaulets on a pilot’s uniform? Pilot uniforms differ in epaulets. Not only it is proper decorum, but the small details on these garments are more than just mere embellishments. As a future pilot, you might be wondering what these epaulets represent. For one, these stripes indicate the qualification or level of experience of commercial pilots. One Stripe epaulets are usually worn by pilots-in-training. In some cases, flight attendants are also spotted wearing this insignia. Two Stripes are worn by flight engineers or second officers. Aside from being the third line of command, they are also qualified to fly planes. Three Stripes indicate that the person is the co-pilot or second in command. They assist the captain through flight planning and updating communication and flight mechanisms. Four Stripes insignia is worn by the captain; the one ultimately in charge of the safety and operations of the flight. Airline companies have the freedom to choose any design or color scheme they might fancy for their uniforms. Interestingly, the next person who will be wearing these stripes could be you!
