Actual size : 76mm x 100mm. Notes : The
Snowbirds logo was first designed during 1972 : This particular example
of the patch (with a cut edge) dates from 1973 and so is quite possibly from
the very first batch made for the team. It was then and always has been to this
day, worn on the upper right arm/shoulder of the teams' flightsuits and jackets
(and occasionally worn on the left chest of the crew jackets). |

|
Actual size : 75mm x 98mm. Notes : This
later example (with a merrowed edge) dates from 1989 and was obtained from the
then Team Leader, Dan Dempsey.

Actual size : 72mm x 93mm. Notes : Almost
identical to the previous 1989 patch, this example originally belonged to one
of the Snowbirds Crew, number 3A, Cpl. Tony Edmundson and was worn
during the 1991 season. |

Actual size : 76mm x 100mm. Notes : This is
the special 30th Anniversary patch, worn by all members of the 2000
Snowbirds Team.

|
Actual size : 73mm x 98mm. Notes : This
version was worn throughout most of the 2000's, up until around
2010/2011.

|
Actual size : 73mm x 98m. Notes : This is
the current patch, now with a slightly different design. It seems to have been
introduced around 2010/2011, although at the time and for the next year or so,
both this and the previous version can be seen worn on the Snowbirds
flight suits and jackets - presumably a "period of transition", due to "old
stock" and existing team members still having clothing from their previous
years. |

|
|
Actual size : 73mm x 98m. Notes : This is a
"subdued", or "low-viz" version of the current patch. It is worn on the pilots'
"everyday" green flight suits, during training, etc. The "normal" red &
white patches are only worn on the public/"Show Suits" and jackets. Green
velcro-backed. |
