Default Unidentified brevet wing

Would this brevet half wing be British in origin and is it military?

Looks like RAC - Royal Automobile Club. The AA used to have an air branch in the good old days; not sure whether the RAC did as well. Just throwing that out as a possibility.

No, I'm pretty sure it is KAC, the top arm of the K has a design at the end which makes me think it isn't the 'loop' of an R.
Maybe K - Aero Club? Kenya, Kilkenny, King's, etc
Cheers,
Alex

Nice badge dont think the quality is there in manufacture to be worn by civi air crew looks more like something you would see on ground crew / mechanic coveralls- hence only half a wing ? just my thoughts .
