Kadet Posted January 15, 2014 Share #1 Posted January 15, 2014 What are these wings? They are a standard three inches, nicely made from Sterling. The winged prop tests for gold. Sweetheart piece? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadet Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share #4 Posted January 15, 2014 Perhaps so, but they don't really have the look of sweetheart jewelry to me. I thought they may be civilian instructor wings.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefighter Posted January 16, 2014 Share #5 Posted January 16, 2014 Very cool wings.I have to agree with Kadet.Could be for a specific school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadet Posted January 17, 2014 Author Share #6 Posted January 17, 2014 Thanks...any other thoughts on these from the wing guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Cooper Posted January 21, 2014 Share #7 Posted January 21, 2014 These are odd... They have some qualities of sweetheart wings but these appear to be a bit more like patriotic jewelry. I think if they were a school wing you would at the very least have some specific logo or initials. There are a few folks on this forum that are very knowledgeable about aviation schools so maybe they might chime in. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadet Posted January 22, 2014 Author Share #8 Posted January 22, 2014 Thanks John. In hand these look very "official" to me. With sweetheart and patriotic jewelry, I'm used to seeing pieces that are more feminine...either a small representation of a real wing, or an embellished/stylized version of something in the larger size. Rhinestones, colored portions etc. Either way, they are of exceptionally high quality and just like an official wing except for the center motif. My other thought was tech rep or civilian test pilot? I believe some of the tech rep insignia had this winged prop motif....would really like some other thoughts if people have them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
