RARE 1944 Dated RNZAF Pilot's Wings METAL New Zealand Air Force TROPICAL Pattern

  

VERY VERY SCARCE 2nd World War (1944 Dated) Royal New Zealand Air Force Tropical Issue flight suit flight qualification brevet. Used ONLY by the R. And by them ONLY in the Tropical Theaters (The Pacific).

"SIGNED & DATED" MAKER marked = M. 44 for Mayer and Keane Wellington (New Zealand) 1944. VERY FEW of these RNZAF pilot wings were ever made Likely LESS than 1-200 pair of pilot's wings. In Warren Carroll's awesome flight brevet collector's reference "Eagles Recalled".

They also made 1/2 wing brevet for navigaror, bomb aimer, engineer etc. These tend to be even scarcer than these "full wings". That BECAUSE the vast majority of the aircraft flown by the TINY RNZAF in The Pacific during WW2 were single-seater FIGHTERS. Toward the END of their breif production-run, Mayer & Keane's STAMPING DIE became well-worn' and the "signature details" SEEN HERE (clearly) are NOT PRESENT on many of those wings produced toward the end of their brief manufacturing run (ONLY made back in 1944).
