May I please have some wings? Here's the proof:

And I can put hand on heart and say that I was wearing the above FOIS when these pics were taken from the copilot's seat of a Cessna 310:

We've adding custom flight crew badges to member cards and member profiles for anyone that can post photos flying an aircraft (any type) while wearing an Omega.

I've already added them to @Mad Dog, @Flysatchmo, @ketchj, @Pilot Ryan, @Flathat, @Seiko007

Who did I miss?

So I am not a pilot, but I did fly this aircraft (not in any serious flight stages thankfully). I 'enjoyed' lots of WW2 fighter aerobatics and I managed to survive every roll expect a bacon one after the flight, as did my Omega 6B-159 and Freese 53.... does that count for a badge under the rules sir?

16k is up there!

Not saying it's wing worthy, just made me remember mine.

Oh I wish I saved my cards they gave us nice certificates as well. One thing I can assure I will never again jump out of a perfectly working aircraft ever again. I thought it would cure me of my fear of heights I still got it.

Sure, but the wings badge has a little Omega symbol in the middle. Maybe we can have a visually different version show when viewed on THF.

There are not many pixels to play with but I'll have a try.

It’s an SVG, just haven’t had a chance to make an alternate version.

Ahhh!. I hadn't looked at the source :whipped:

pilot-badge.svg now downloaded to work on in Inkscape. That makes it so much easier 👍

Looking at the brands super strong aviation navigation history, and being the longest surviving watch brand trademark..... maybe a flying Longines should also get pilots wings.... although the watches already have them :0)
