[beerdragon54]

Picked up a collection of patches today and this large one came with it. Any help would be appreciated.

Is that picture of the patch upside down?

Looks like it is. I'm guessing this is civi. Boasting of transcontinental flight.

Thanks guys!! Makes sense. I shall let eBay figure out the value.

Here we are, seems like member dmar's on to something, see how one of the world is day the other night. Maybe a special fight to fly from the the eastern to the western hemisphere in a 24 hour period????

My guess is civilian post WW2 plane could maybe be a Connie

Hard to tell by the generic nature of the aircraft depiction but a Connie would have a different tail profile. With the “around the world” subject matter I would venture a guess it is supposed to be the B-50 Lucky Lady II the first aircraft to fly around the world non stop in 1949.
