Nice Rob - I think these wing are under rated by many.... the funny thing is you see folks on Ebay try to charge $20 each which IMHO is crazy!

I agree that they are sometimes overlooked and they are a nice way to get examples of all the wings worn by the air corp with out having to pay big money as you would with sterling wings. I got all the chocolate wings as a collection from Richard Smith, who wrote a couple of great books on patches. I bought them back in the mid 1990s. He charged me $25 for all of them.
