I never knew brevets or pilot wings meant so much.

I found an old picture tonight of a flying sweater given to me by the Mona Flying Club in 1983. It clearly shows wings plus MFC for Mona Flying Club.

Lots of flying clubs have pilot wings on sale but it appears there is a big distinction in what they represent.

Clearly TCT had the flying suit made with sponsors patches plus the RAF Brevet but the question remains why she chose a historic one? Why wear it on board the Spirit of Artemis bearing the Royal Navy emblem plus Royal Navy and Royal Marines Charity logo?

I have today replied to Robert Robson at the RNRM charity asking the above question.
