cabbell2006 Posted October 28, 2008 Share #1 Posted October 28, 2008 Hi Gang, I'm in need of a little help with these glider wing, to see if it is genuine. They were really gray with a little work with a shirt they are shining up. Thanks Gang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pconrad02 Posted October 28, 2008 Share #3 Posted October 28, 2008 These look like a nice example of late/post war glider wings, although I would stop "shining them up" as that ( in my opinion) lessens their appeal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfrost Posted October 28, 2008 Share #5 Posted October 28, 2008 Paul is correct, those are classic "issue" or "graduation" style glider pilot wings from WWII. Not uncommon, but still very nice. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
