kyhistorian01 Posted September 16, 2009 Share #1 Posted September 16, 2009 I only have a few pair of of original WWII Army Air Corp Wings, but I thought I would share this pair. I have had them for a while and they deffinatly show their age and use. Robert front Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pfrost Posted September 16, 2009 Share #3 Posted September 16, 2009 back Very nice wing! Thanks for sharing it with us. It is not easy to find observer wings because it seems that the vast majority of those were made into the base for other wings (e.g. gunner, bombardier wings) --and the aircraft observer was relatively rare compared to the other ratings.

John Cooper Posted September 17, 2009 Share #4 Posted September 17, 2009 I will echo Patrick on this - very nice wing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nack Posted September 17, 2009 Share #5 Posted September 17, 2009 Also, these sort of Gemsco wings (and maybe all Gemsco wings) are interesting and unusual because the lower feathers extend past the center emblem - most wings don't have that feature. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingfortress Posted September 17, 2009 Share #6 Posted September 17, 2009 Nice frosted silver wing! Regards, George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
