It is a good copy though! The RAF is right but Wreath still not right, and Crown still not there! Scary glad I know where mine came from! All the best billy

That this individual is actually a member, certainly is, in itself, very disappointing indeed.

They must be becoming more available. I bought this one on ebay recently and, from the label, it was only made in January this year. They are also listed on the Wydean Weaving website but are currently out of stock, which is why I was forced to buy this one at an inflated price.

These things are really 'taking off' - nice to see another correct one found a good home.
However I hope any fake is marked as such on the back - as discussed on the forum numerous times. If not it could be very misleading in the future and a questionable practice. Mike Last edited by Mike B; 02-07-18 at 06:33 AM. |

As the copies are not normally marked these may indeed cause a problem in future. For reference I am attaching a pic of both for comparison.

Thanks for sharing that image Dave,
The difference are quite clear when shown side by side. It's an interesting area to collect too but sadly disturbing that the fakes are out almost as soon as the real thing. Cheerio, Roy

Does that mean the fakers knew what was coming regarding colour of wreath? - all very odd!

The RPAS(P) badge is now obsolete and all Pilot(ISR) RPAS are entitled to wear the same Flying Badge as the other pilots. That changed on 1 Apr 19.
