As with a bio-linked item, the person owning the items must also own the structure. The items must be removed (along with all bio-linked items) before you can transfer the structure to another character.
Yep, and my alt can't pick them up...
/agree that the jacket is hideous, but that's not the point... why should the wookiees and ithorians not be able the wear their rewards clothes to show, "Hey, I mastered freelance pilot," if they wanted to.
The helmet is just so damned cool...

Now that would be a cool Wookie Master pilot reward Item.

/agree 
Or at least better than an oddball shirt and a helmet that doesn't fit...

Because wookiees don't wear clothes?
You could not be more wrong.
Chalmun the actual owner of the Mos Eisely cantina wore a vest and pants every day to work.
Snoova the Wookiee Bounty Hunter that Chewbacca posed as during the Shadows of the Empire series, wore a heavy jacket type, armor thing.
Not to mention the elaborate wookiee ceremonial garb that are worn for hrrrtayyk ceremonies.
Wookiees do in FACT wear clothes. Many just choose not to.

The Helmet doesn't really look right on Bothans, either. Conflicts with our Snouts, and is too long in the back. If it were pushed forward a little, it would be golden

Wookiee culture states that they do not wear clothing. Star Wars has been very clear on this. Sure, some wookiees do, but some humans also eat the flesh of other humans. That doesn't mean that either act is acceptable to that race's culture. A few freaks who make exceptions of themselves does not change the overall view of the race.

Do I actualy need to list all the wookiees that are known to wear clothing? Seeing as how a good 40%-ish of the expanded universe wookiees wear some type of clothing other than a bandolier, I hardly consider that "some freaks" yes wookiees do in FACT wear clothing in the SW universe.
Wookiees that remain on Kashyyyk remain clothless usually. Wooks that go off planet are not only encouraged to blend in but often want to.
A tribe of miscreant wookiees are even known to shave their shoulders and wear clothing appropriate to expose these shaved shoulders to show the rest of the galaxy that, under the fur they are the same as anyone else, and wish to be treated the same as anyone else.
All of this however is completely irrelevent...
This is Star Wars galaxies, which is as far away from REAL Star Wars as you can get without being in Star Trek.
All wookiees wear clothes here. Ithorians, Wookiees, Twi'leks, and Sullustans can join the Empire. Any and every schmuck that plays too much can be a Jedi Knight.
My friend wants to wear his jacket that he worked for. If you can't contribute, don't post. :-)
*you might want to brush up on your wookiee lore also* ;-)

True.
If I were a Wookie and it were possible, I'd shave myself totally and get a full body tatoo saying "This is my Ironic Gesture for the day".

I dunno, have you ever seen the alternate engine skin for a Ywing? I always star looking for Dilithium crystal loots when I see those ships...

Well Neutral ace pilot jacket sucks, looks ugly and if you sit down with it the jacket mixes in with whatever you have under it(or skin if nothing is under it) So we cant do much even with it on

Or any other fighter for that matter. Can you imagine trying to stuff Chewbacca into the ball of a TIE fighter?
Of course we are ignoring the fact that TIE Fighters have no life support system in place...
Well, that takes it back to the question of should non-humans (ESPECIALLY wookies) be able to fight for the Empire? Since this is a game, we can argue about life support systems, and star wars continuity, but it doesn't matter. If SOE followed that humans only for the empire, there would be a massive riot, LOL

I don't thing that there would be if they had done it from the start. Too late now though, kinda like jedi population control.
