Representing the Triple One (111th) and the Triple Two (222nd) Fighter Squadrons based at Aviano Air Base, Italy, this authentic tail flash is a must-have for veterans, active-duty airmen, and aviation enthusiasts.
Premium Craftsmanship and Detail
Each plaque is handcrafted from high-quality solid mahogany, ensuring a durable and elegant finish that lasts for generations. Our artisans capture the specific “AV” tail code and the iconic yellow and black “Buzzard” checkers or wing stripes with precision. The wood is hand-sanded to a smooth finish and coated with a clear mahogany lacquer to highlight the natural grain, making it a standout piece of military wall decor.

It is an ideal gift for pilots, crew chiefs, and maintenance personnel who have supported the mission of the 31st FW. The plaque features a recessed brass hanger on the back, allowing it to sit flush against any wall in an office, “ego room,” or home gallery.
