Wake1941 Posted April 25, 2019 Share #4 Posted April 25, 2019 Very cool, the design and post look 60s/70s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stratasfan Posted April 25, 2019 Share #5 Posted April 25, 2019 Fun! Well . . . I'd say that, at least, you have a pair of pilot-looking wings that say "SAC" in the center of the shield! -grin- Seriously, though, Strategic Air Command is the best guess I can think of, too.

pfrost Posted April 25, 2019 Share #6 Posted April 25, 2019 There is a similar wing from the Darr Aero Tech shown here. I suspect that this is a wing from post WWII. Notice that the clutchback pins seem to be electrosoldered. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/71999-caawtscptflight-schools/page-5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWalsh Posted April 25, 2019 Share #7 Posted April 25, 2019 pfrost makes a good point on the SAC wings possibly being flight training related. Below are two possibilities along those lines, both trained military pilots during WW2, but were civilian companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
