If someone gets qualified as a scanner, is that person then entitled to wear aircrew wings?
What is the difference between regular, senior, and master aircrew wings?

So a new mission scanner would wear the regular, most simple, aircrew badge, right?

The miniature ones are better on the shirt, these above on the service coat, but either are authorized.

Don't forget to get them for your field uniform and flight suit as applicable.

Don't forget... Two steps here. You earn the 101 qualification THEN you put in for the decoration (the wings). You dont just start wearing them.


Go to the applicable section in Ops quals to apply for the wings, once the rating is approved. Easy and simple. Same thing for other decorations like GTM...
