rustywings Posted August 11, 2020 Author Share #427 Posted August 11, 2020 Wow! What a nice Kelly Field patch! I especially like the way they incorporated the USAAF colors into the PT design! Thanks for posting... And thank you Tod for posting the additional info on the Twenty-nine Palms Flight School. It's all worthy info... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocsfollowme Posted August 30, 2020 Share #428 Posted August 30, 2020 So I have had these for some time. Does anyone know what school they go to? 1.5" in diameter. Reminds me of the Chicago School of Aircraft Instruments Women's Aircraft Instrument Tech small round patches but they are of a different color.

Take a look: https://www.yumpu.com/xx/document/read/56460726/6010-f-clampout-condor-field Back to the Twenty Nine Palms...Yes, it was TAA. Here is a shirt that was on Ron Burkey's site that has since been sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have one without the "Inter-American Cadet" I wonder if this relates specifically to Cadets from Latin America? The use of the phrase "Inter-american" is oddly specific and not often found.

Aviation Training Incorporation Steve, there’s a number of similarities between your mystery patch and several known WWII era “Hancock College of Aeronautics” patch variations. The globe depicting the Western Hemisphere; the Eagle; and especially the three small stars, can be found on other Hancock patches and documents. Nothing confirmed...just possible clues?

B-17Guy Posted February 26, 2022 Share #441 Posted February 26, 2022 I was at Williams for about 20 minutes last week and took this photo of one of the WWII hangars still in use. Always liked the RAF wing badge stylized hangars. There some in Macon GA too. Jonn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its from the 65th College Training Detachment (CTD) at Syracuse University. The Seneca Flying School around Syracuse was in charge of giving the men basic flight training. My dad spent a number of months as part of the 65th CTD until they booted him and 90% of the other cadets out because they needed more air crew members. Has anyone ever seen a patch from the 65th CTD? The attached SFS wings image shows the stamping die used by The Robbins Company to manufacture Seneca Flying School wings. The die was made September 24, 1941. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5thwingmarty Posted February 26, 2023 Share #446 Posted February 26, 2023 A while back I picked up a little pin (about 1" in span) that had the letters CSAI across its base. I suspected that the pin was from the Chicago School of Aircraft Instruments but could not prove it until now. At the SOS a little grouping walked up to our table and presented itself to me (this is almost literally what happened) which now gives me the proof I needed, and now my little pin has joined the grouping. Hopefully I can add a patch or two and another booklet to the set for the Women Aircraft Instrument Technicians (WAIT) program from this school.

ocsfollowme Posted April 27, 2023 Share #450 Posted April 27, 2023 Here are some new ones that just came in. I have NEVER seen another AAF * FTD Ocala Florida patch before. Here are three tabs, all hard to find, with the flight instructor being the most common. I am still wondering where these were used at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
