David, there is also a cloth version, also to be worn on the right breast of coveralls, slightly different i.e. a triangle in golden-yellow (pointing down) with the same insignia/ the letters "G" and "L" left and right/border in black. However on this version the eagle faces to the left. As a general identification on civilian clothes a yellow armband with black letters "General-Luftzeugmeister" could be worn.

cheers
Peter
