Fly Kilted! Enjoy the comfort. And enjoy the puzzled reactions of TSA folks...though some are way ahead of us on kilts and are nonpulsed. You just never know what you're gonna get.

Best flying kilt for me is a UK Survival II. Just put the stuff you need on board in the cargo pockets, unsnap them, and send them through the Xray rig. Snaps, belt, may or may not set off the detector. Wanding is no big deal.

Once I forgot I had back up batteries for my camera in my regular front pocket of the survival II. Those pockets are deep and the batteries wound up behind the lower snap. So when I got wanded the TSA guy figured it was the snap. Kinda freaked me later when I found the batteries...coulda been something else about the size of AA batteries....but it weren't.

I like to leave the pockets off once on board. Can just put them in the pouch in front of me. That way they don't hang up on the narrow, "you're a sardine now" airline seats.

When its time to deplane, I just snap them back on.

And yes, I fly regimental.
