CliffP Posted January 31, 2011 Share #4 Posted January 31, 2011 :thumbsup: Looks fine to me. CORRECTION: Looks fine to me. While not officially authorized by the War Department to sport an "E" in the center shield, it is never-the-less a Flight Engineer badge... made when 20th Bomber Command operated B-29 bases in both India and China. So where was your badge made? India. Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mshaw Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share #6 Posted January 31, 2011 Thanks Cliff and Paul! I had thought the "E" wing was made in India if it was real but I wasn't sure about the "R". Anyway, thank you both for weighing in with your expertise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pfrost Posted January 31, 2011 Share #7 Posted January 31, 2011 Thanks Cliff and Paul! I had thought the "E" wing was made in India if it was real but I wasn't sure about the "R". Anyway, thank you both for weighing in with your expertise! I would agree, it looks like an Indian-made wing (or at least from that area). Great wing!

rustywings Posted January 31, 2011 Share #8 Posted January 31, 2011 Nice unauthorized Flight Engineer wings MSHAW! Here's a couple more for comparison. The top wing was made by Beverlycraft...the bottom wing is likely CBI made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
