Just noticed this for sale on ebay Ireland.

Also selling Coast Guard, Garda and Army shirts ?!

Pity there are no AC baseball caps available with a better design! (e.g. dark blue or black)


N.B. - He forgot the "s" (Corps not Corp) !!

There were dark ones made up for the 75th Anniv show with a Marchetti and the roundell with Irish Air Corps embroidered on them. Still have mine in my wardroce somewhere. There were also t-shirts I think?!

It should not have "Army" on the cap. Just Irish Air Corp.

Yes, I have one of those 'Marchetti' caps, however the quality wasn't good - it's doesn't hold it's shape, and 'IRISH AIR CORPS' is tiny and blurred on it.

I got the Dauphin SAR tee-shirt also ....... think I still have it somewhere ?!

(Got an Alouette Print also. All at Air Sectacular 2000)

I'm generally not into promotional baseball caps, keyrings, mugs, etc, but I would make an exception for well-designed AC stuff !   ':<img:'>

You're right, it is cheap and crap !  '<img'>

Unfortunetly, at the moment it is the only 'Air Corps' cap available ?  '<img'>

Personally, I would like a good quality cap in dark blue or black, with the AC eagle crest, and the words 'AIR CORPS' in silver (either arched above the crest or in a straight line below it).
