I assume you mean lapel badges. Try the shop at the RAF Museum, Hendon (or Cosford).
Good luck.

basically I want to get a load of station crests, mount them on a plaque showing career details for one of our lads who is redundant soon.

Ah! Right. Well, as I said, good luck.
However . . .
Could you not download digital images, resize each to a standard size that fits your scheme, print out in colour, attach to wooden plaque thing, varnish and garnish to suit?
Lo-tech? Yes. But possibly more "doable".

The RAFA guys who ran a stall at Lyneham families day have a large selection.
PM me and I'll pass on your details to them. Maybe if its a reasonable sized request they might stick them in a jiffy bag for you and post them.
In fact anyone out there can do the same.
Cos its for Charridy
