Hello everyone,
Hoping you can help - I found this badge in a box in my parents' attic. It was with a REME badge and one for the Payroll section.
This is a total mystery though, so wondered if anyone could help me work it out, please?
Cheers
Nick

Hello,

Its an Airwork Services Limited Pilots Cap badge.

Formed in 1928 and ended in 1960 when it merged with Hunting-Clan Air Transport to form British United Airway.

Airwork Services Limited provided a variety of defence support services to the Royal Air Force, Fleet Air Arm and overseas air forces.

regards

Wow, thanks for the speedy response. That's really interesting, had no idea. Will have to find out who was involved in that.
