Any Brazilian Air Force aficionado on here? I got the following patch at RIAT 2013 from the Brazilian R-99 crew. Was just doing a bit of research, better late than never :lol: It appears it's not a R-99 patch but a possible a fighter patch :unsure:

I was looking around the Newark Air Museum Shop today and noticed that they had around 60 patches for sale (assorted types / Squadrons, which had been donated to raise funds for the museum) - these were priced at circa £2.50 each; sorry no other details.

Like the Black Cats patch, did you get that off the merchandise trailer? They never seem to have any patches when I have a look :lol:

That was the design they were using a few years back. Not seen anything new from them in a while.

Moved into the new section. If anyone wants to start a new thread with their own purchased at each show, go for it!

Nice selection :cool: Where did you get the P-8 Poseidon patch?

Through a bit of boredom and insomnia I've put together a basic patch website, it's not complete yet I pressed the wrong button and published it by mistake :lol: http://trampslikeus1978.wix.com/my-patch-collection

From the same place I got my P-8 challenge coin I expect...from a crew member-if you asked them nicely :thumb:

Yes I got both a challenge coin and a patch see below, but it appears they were either holding stuff back or having fun and games because I was told on a couple of occasion they didn't have any Airtevron One (VX-1) patches or any of the ones BrizeWatcher posted

I was given two- the Blue Angels and Vulcan one but I am aware of a patch meet that takes place at RAF Mildenhall every now and again. :)
