Gary Cain Posted September 17, 2008 Share #5 Posted September 17, 2008 Senior Pilots Wings represent 2000 hours of flying time. As an aside Hub Zemke the legendary leader of the 56th Fighter Group(P47's) didn't earn his Senior Pilot Wing till after the war. Gary ok,but what does the senior pilots one represent?
