Round Flugzeugführerabzeichen/pilots badges
Hey Everyone,
I was just wondering what people's thoughts about the round Flugzeugführerabzeichen. Ive been reading up on them a bit. I find it hard to believe that they would be Jet fighter badges. I'd like to hear what others have to say.
Thanks Kindly,
Jess

Re: Round Flugzeugführerabzeichen/pilots badges
Hi Jess, to put it bluntly, the "jet pilots badge" theory is a load of rubbish. There is no proof at all that these badges are pre 1945. Most serious collectors regard them as fantasy items.
Cheers, Ade.

Hey Ade,
Thats what I thought originally, but just recently, i was watching the Hitler's bodyguard series on the Military Channel here in the US and noticed an Obergruppenführer wearing what appears to be a round pilots badge. I have it scheduled to record on my DVR. I'll post a picture when I spot it again. I dont know if anyone else saw this. It was the wolf's lair episode. I might be off, but tell me what you think.
Thanks Kindly,
Jess

Hi Jess, I would be highly dubious that it is that badge, especially given the branch of service of the man wearing it. If you can get a screen capture of it I would be interested to see it though.
Cheers, Ade.

Hi there, I have just been offered a round pilots badge. Its by Junker, looks and feels ok and is in good condition. The pin is of a question mark type ie slight loop out from the hinge then straight down. "C" shape pin catch. I will post a few pictures asap. What would your thoughts be on these. Thanks Bob
