This is superb vintage tie with two different aeronautical or airline logos (unknown – unless you know better!).
It was made in England by Ernex in heavy quality Polyester blue and maroon check design – with a gold griffon and a silver winged shield.
This tie belonged to a Captain Ralph KOHN FRAeS who had an illustrious career in Civil Aviation. He learned to fly in 1950 and served with the RAFVR obtaining his pilot licence in 1953. He was an aero-club instructor before joining Eagle Aviation in 1955. He also flew with Dan Air, the British Aircraft Corporation and the CAA Flight Operations Inspectorate. He flew some 16,500 hours of which over 11,000 were in command of such aircraft as the Vickers Viking, DC6A/B, Vickers Viscount, Bristol Britannia 300, all the BAC 1-11 variants, Boeing 707-100/300/720 and Boeing 747- 100/200/400 aircraft. He was a Fellow of the Royal Aeronautical Society and a Liveryman of the Guild of Air Pilots and Air Navigators.
It is in superb apparently un-used condition.
