1940s BOAC Wing - or BOAC Stewards Cap Badge?
Can anyone give a definitive answer as to what badge this is?
I have had this badge in my collection for a number of years as a c-1940 BOAC aircrew wing, but have recently seen it on a dealers website as a Flight Attendants Cap Badge. I have also seen it on dealers sites as an aircrew wing.
The BOAC did have a solid brass cap badge, and also a solid brass/gilt pilots wing, both in differing styles. This is probably more akin to a cap badge, the wartime BOAC wing being rather fine.
But does anyone have a definitive answer, or better still, a photo of it being worn?
Many thanks!
