I get that wings have always been awarded at the end of a given course of flying training, but surely their continued wearing depends on continuing flying, at least for one tour. To my dinosaur nav’s brain, flying means being in the air. But hey ho, words can mean what you want them to mean (1984, I think, or was it Alice through the looking glass?)
BV, I know that my opinion doesn’t MATTER, but debate on here would be pretty thin if it was restricted to those whose opinion DOES matter!
Best regards to all wearing the uniform, whatever badges they have
