...Has TCT ever suggested that she was or had ever been in the RAF, or been trained/qualified by the RAF?

PDR

Not exactly but in her own weasily way she often mentions that she was "trained by military pilots" etc.

I left the part out about Cheryl Cole/Fernandez/Versini or whatever moniker she goes by as in her case there is clearly no intent to deceive. In TCT's case looking at the whole picture I, and many others, believe that the following points apply:

"as to be calculated to deceive"
"to falsely represent yourself as someone entitled to wear any such award"

She is not at a re-enactment event, she is not in a west-end stage show, she is not singing at the O2 arena; she is in an environment where it can be taken that she has earned those wings. Like it or not, the pattern fits her self promotional nature.

In earlier pictures of her with them she had them on her right collar and I have no qualms with that, it was when they appeared in the RAF-awarded location that it began to matter and became offensive to those who have earned the right to wear a brevet.
