War Eagle Field sqn patch

[Flightengineer]

Hi,
I made a copy of this fun patch today at the request of my daughter, who liked the drawing of a small plane reading the How to Fly textbook.
As you know, the author of the picture for this patch Disney or one of his artists.
Oddly enough, it was most difficult was to reproduce not very even inscriptions, I looked at 5 or 6 photos of the originals and they were all different as they were drawn by hand and often apparently in a hurry.

This is a drawing on canvas, like on some surviving originals.

Thanks, Burt. She is waiting for her first A2 (I think in a year, if we are all will still alive) and wants patch it. Maybe it will be this one, maybe I'll draw Finfinella (WASP) for her.
That's how it looks in daylight on my A2.

That looks pretty cool Dmitry, and what a great hobby to have during the lock down. I could while away several hours a day doing that type of art work. Sadly I have zero art talent. Nice work my friend.!

Couchy, I definitely don’t know what size is she in A2. A year ago, I was thinking of ordering A2 for her (or Amelia's jacket) from Shawn or Jay and talked with they about it, but she is growing fast and we decided to wait a bit. She is very fragile ( as a flower) 12 years old girl. I recently bought her a denim jacket, it was a Euro size 34.
What size is this kids Aero?

At 12, Hayden's A-2 would be too small. From memory it is an 8 or 10.

Hayden (now 11) is wearing a 34R Tanker, a bit baggy but he loves it.

Love the DC-3 near the zeppelin too Dmitry. The sights in the skies must have been unreal back in those days.

My grandmother told me she actually witnessed this plane shortly after take off sitting in her yard, and she remembered it not seeming to be right. Apparently the company was full of safety violations.
