Default Royal Air Force query

If I may refer to Billy's RAF album:

What is the badge upper right, Crown/Eagle/RAF?

Thanks, Tinto

It is stated to be the first pattern of the Officers FS Cap badge. However it has been much copied, usually with a frame around the words RAF, as well as with the wording RNAS. To date I have not seen any official paperwork to verify its use.
