Official NAS Corpus Christi Skid Kids embroidered morale patch for collectors and aviation enthusiasts

Description

Made at NAS Corpus Christi Skid Kids Patch — NAS Corpus Christi Skid Kids Embroidered Patch

Made at NAS Corpus Christi — where skid kids are born.

Naval Air Station Corpus Christi, Texas, is where student naval aviators in the rotary-wing pipeline learn to fly helicopters. The “Skid Kids” identity belongs to the pilots and aircrew who choose the skid-equipped helicopter community — flying aircraft like the TH-57 Sea Ranger and eventually the UH-1Y Venom and AH-1Z Viper. This patch celebrates the Corpus Christi roots of every skid kid, marking the place where they first learned to hover, autorotate, and fly the aircraft that would define their careers. If you went through flight school at NAS Corpus Christi and came out a helicopter pilot, you’re a skid kid for life.

• Dense stitching with merrowed border for lasting durability
