The coolest man I have ever seen.

    A few weeks ago, I was in Dublin Airport at an ungodly hour flying out to Finland.
    As I walked down the main "shopping" corridor, I saw a man coming towards me. He was like a vision from the 1930s, striding purposefully through decrepit Dublin airport, smiling and knowing how good he looked.

    He was clearly a pilot.
    He wore a black over-coat, knee-length if my bleary memory is correct, possibly with gold trimming.
    He had a scarf wrapped around his neck tightly.
    He wore a pilot's cap, again possibly with gold trimming.

    I almost stopped him to ask what airline he was with, but I didn't trust myself to speak coherently at such an early hour.

    I know several of my friends have seen pilots like him in the airport before. I've been searching the net to try and find out where he was from, but no joy.
    I must get one of those coats...
    Does anyone know from my weak description what airline he could be with?
