K.u.K Badge - Please help

Here you can see the badge of Sturm-Baon 48. May this was an inspiration for the maker?

This is one of the coolest badges of AH and I REALLY want to get this one day... Great item!

Edit: by the way.... Did you buy this particular badge?

The head of eagle can be "different" way too in pilot badges, but this is totally strange badge for me who has been pretty keen on AH-badges for several years
already. Never know anyway, if I have missed something....

Hopefully Enzo sees this soon, after that I'm pretty confident we know what's this about.

I remember Enzo was shy earlier about being called as "Guru" in AH-stuff, but the least description would be "AH-pedia" anyway

That would be great!! Let' hope he does see the post...

I am pretty confident that this badge is fairly old - at least a few decades and not made in Latvia or Poland in the past 10-yeas or so... The box imprint perfectly matches the badge and the patina did not happen overnight... Anyway, I do hope that someone knows more about it - no matter if it is fantasy piece or something else!

Sorry, it is not mine. But I held them in my hand

AMAZING Tomasz!! A beautiful piece, so I guess the Sturmtruppen did have pilot badges...

I think it would look great, fantasy or not with that crappy enamel removed!
Looks like wax!

more likely polyester casting resin.

This is rather not pilot badge. Just a regimental badge. Please see description here (version w/o Baon's name):
