Prussia Prussian Pilot Badge Differentiation

[P.F.]

Gentlemen,

What is the difference between these two types of pilot badge?

- Kgl. Preuss. Flugzeugführer-Abzeichen
- Kgl. Preuss Flieger Erinnerungsabzeichen

I think one is a commemorative piece. I would really appreciate photos of the two, that's if they are not one in the same.

Many thanks,
Pierce

You got it.

The first badge was a badge for qualified pilots.

The second one was a commemorative badge awarded to former pilots / observers after retired, if they fullfilled the requirements.

Alex,

This is what I thought but just wasn't 100%. Many thanks for confirming.

Best regards
