Doesn't wearing an uniform imply (or could be thought so by other passengers) she was on duty? Being seen as military personnel on duty in a commercial flight doesn't just sound really good, but of course this is mostly due to the general atmosphere of flight fear

You didn't read the link, did you? I don't blame you. I freaking hate the Daily Mail too.

> Armed Forces rules state that a serviceman or woman can wear their uniforms voluntarily from their ‘residence to place of duty, irrespective of whether they travel by public or private transport, or on foot.’

EDIT: The article has a nice blurb about the difference between US and UK views of personnel in uniform.

No, I didn't read the link for that reason :) I'm from Spain, so I didn't know e rules, but was more thinking about the passenger impressions on the aircraft.
