Why did World War 2 raf fighter pilots have top button undone on their uniforms?
Style and Tradition – Many pilots adopted a more relaxed, “devil-may-care” attitude, influenced by the culture of the RAF, particularly within Fighter Command. This informal look became a symbol of their rebellious and daring spirit. Influence of Senior Officers – Iconic RAF figures like Douglas Bader were known for their casual approach to uniform regulations. This set an example that younger pilots followed.

The RAF were highly outnumbered as their werent many pilots at all. It wasnt much of an air force and so it truly shows how it all comes down to what you put into it and that was obviously a lot of effort.That's why the saying goes "Never was so much owed by so many, to so few".Many being the population of England and few being the British RAF Pilots
