Excellent additions Gary :thumb:

For the Czech patches, that's a great price, but I can't work out which shipping option goes to the UK, any help? :lol:

Hi Kyle

Gary, how long did it take for the two Czech patches to arrive, because i ordered my Icelandic Air Policing patch on the 23rd Feb and it has not appeared yet.

Has anyone used the Fans of 211 sqn website or even fans of 2 sqn (Slovak Air Force) websites?

To the best of my knowledge, the fan211sqn website is an unofficial, private enterprise website. A friend of mine ordered some patches from there last year - service was okay, postage costs were high and the patches didn't match the ones sold by the official 211 Sqn shop. Of course I'm no expert of CZAF patches - just my experience.

No problem Gary mate, must admit they are superb Patches :thumb:

Would love to get a hold of the other 111sqn bear patch, and the blackjack one think they are going to be very difficult to get

a hold of :( so if any body has spares let me know, that would be awesome :thumbs:

Dougie :D
