The Canadian Forces RCAF Pilot Wing New Pattern is a modern insignia awarded to qualified pilots of the Royal Canadian Air Force. This embroidered badge features a central silver-toned wing flanking a maple leaf, emblematic of Canada’s aviation heritage, with the addition of a crown above, signifying service to the sovereign. The “New Pattern” designation indicates changes from earlier versions, reflecting updates in materials and minor design elements introduced as part of uniform modernization efforts within the Canadian Armed Forces. Traditionally, this wing is worn on the left breast of the uniform by personnel who have successfully completed Canadian military pilot training. The design adheres to current regulations set by the Department of National Defence. This insignia is relevant for collectors of Canadian military memorabilia, students of military uniform history, and anyone interested in contemporary Canadian armed forces insignia. This item is presented in new, unused condition as issued.
