British Commonwealth Air Training Plan Squadron Patches

[GregN]

Hi all, I picked up a large bag of interesting stuff last week and these were in the pile. I don't know much about the BCATP so thankfully there are some excellent resources on line to educate the uninformed like myself.

These are all associated with Alberta locations with the exception of Tofino BC. I've seen many designs over the years, some quite simple , others very sophisticated. I especially like the use of Disney characters in many of the designs.

Enjoy,

Greg

Greg, there are a couple of books on the subject, one by Ted Barras, 'Behind the Glory', the other by Spencer Dunmore 'Wings of Victory'. My late father-in-law was a flying instructor with the BCTAP, but mainly here in Ontario.
