Default Opinions on RCAF wing
Anyone has any opinion about this wing ?
I'm definately no expert on RCAF stuff but personally I'm not sure of the way the back looks.

I wouldn't buy it.....The motto is out of alignment and the crown is crooked....I have theatre made pieces with those attributes, but this is a machine made piece.....Not for me!

Hi there. I love debate over badges. My thoughts are that this wing is totally good. Machine made, early to mid 40's. I have a couple in my collection very similar. The Canadian Government sub contracted to so many companies to embroider badges that the subtle differences in variants are endless.
My thoughts
David
