Irish Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 (edited) Here is a group of Thai aviation wings. Military and Commercial. These were part of a larger collection I purchased earlier this year. The top 2 are military, Pilot and Navigator. The center 3 are commercial. Thai Airways are the gold and silver wings and an Air Siam, better photo below. The bottom wing I am unsure what it is for. any help? You just cannot beat Thai handmade quality, excellent workmanship. I would venture the military wings are 1960's -70's. Thai Airways 70's 80's and possibly to current. Air Siam 1960's. the bottom unknown wing has the French/ Viet straight pins for attachement. Edited December 15, 2010 by Irish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I wonder if your bottom set might be Lao. The triple elephant suggests it, and the different pin arrangement makes me wonder. The similarity to French / Viet is also a clue. Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Posted December 15, 2010 Author Share Posted December 15, 2010 I had not thought of Lao but the center emblem might suggest that. Thanks for the input. Hopefully some other members can weigh in. Best John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
