Guys,
Just to add my two pennies - Cuban badges are actually Russian/Soviet manufacture. Alexei |

Airex 1992
Guys,
Do you have any comments/ideas on this one? It,s being described as a para badge issued in limited quantities to a display team. Fantasy? Eddie.

Eddie,
AIREX is an international air show, could it be a souvenir pin from the Russian pavilion? Alexei |

Alexei,
Thanks for the promt response. This was about all I could find out about this AIREX 1992... it was as you mention an international air display, but this is the first time I have seen a badge with the actual name and year of the event on a Para badge. Note 1992, the year? I somehow find it hard to belive that these Para badges were made extra for the Display team at this time, so no doubt it is not an official issue. Eddie.
