Description
Well, since 'Testing Testing 1, 2, 3' released, a few of my headcanons regarding the history of the Wonderbolts have had to be scrapped. Some still fit, just with a little adjustment. And a few costume designs have actually becoming more supported by canon. In this case, the WW1/WW2 type flying cap and jacket combo that I had always planned Rainbow to model became more plausible thanks to Commander Easyglider's uniform.

With regards to the suits not matching up with the uniforms that we've been shown, I don't think it's that much of a big deal. This series is about the sorts of outfits the Wonderbolts would wear in combat or during performances, whereas the uniforms Rarity shows off look much more like ceremonials or dress blues, the sort of thing you'd wear on parade as opposed to on a battlefield. Besides which, we've already seen Spitfire and Soarin wearing uniforms other than the flight suits they were during shows.

Also, it occurs to me that Spitfire, with a name like her's, would have been a much better choice for the uniform based on a WW2 pilot. Why do the really good ideas always come too late?

So, yeah. Rainbow Dash, rocking the 1940s look, and a headcanon justification rant from me.
