I saw these on ebay and got one. They're pretty cool!!! Very vintage looking.

I am a flight engineer in the USAF when I'm not slinging planes regionally but those are actually USAF Flight Engineer wings minus the flight dispatcher and ours are silver.

Yeah, old school FE wings........nowdays just Friday wings.

But with Flight Dispatcher emblazoned across them? Wings for a dispatcher is like the squadron 1CO's at the ops desk wearing wings.

You're in the 433rd at Kelly then?

Our FEs (SMAs, I guess they're called now) are still only allowed to wear them on Fridays.
 
We have a workplace violence card. Give our dispatchers pointy objects, your just asking for trouble....and to use that card. This is probably why we don't have nice pens and have to use safety scissors.
