cthomas Posted April 29, 2016 Share #1 Posted April 29, 2016 I came across these while surfing the net and was wondering if the wing experts can help me ID this one. It's clutch back Admittedly, I'm away from my wing refs... Thanks! Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tonomachi Posted April 29, 2016 Share #2 Posted April 29, 2016 I don't know if it is real or not but it is supposedly an Air Force Astronaut command pilot wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kropotkin Posted April 29, 2016 Share #3 Posted April 29, 2016 I believe the shooting star denotes an astronaut qualification. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cthomas Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share #4 Posted April 29, 2016 What does a legit set go for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wake1941 Posted April 29, 2016 Share #5 Posted April 29, 2016 They do not go for that much maybe 10-15 dollars. Many of these where never issued. If you have a pair attributed to an astronaut they would be worth a pretty penny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skypilot6670 Posted April 29, 2016 Share #6 Posted April 29, 2016 Value depends on the wing. Early 60s sterling wings can be expensive one to two hundred and more. Wings associated with specific astronauts or missions, the sky is the limit.( pun intended) see link. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/159127-usaf-astronaut-wings/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
