Carrier Qual Det The Good, The Bad and the Bolter Patch — US Navy Carrier Qualification Morale Embroidered Patch
The Good, The Bad, and the Bolter — because every CQ det has all three.
Carrier qualification (CQ) is the ultimate test for student naval aviators — landing a T-45 Goshawk on a moving aircraft carrier. Every CQ detachment produces good traps, bad passes, and bolters (missed landings where the aircraft goes around). This morale patch captures the drama of carrier qualifications with a classic Western movie twist.
Perfect For:
Student naval aviators, T-45 Goshawk pilots, carrier qualification veterans, and Navy aviation training morale patch collectors.
The Good, The Bad, and the Bolter.
If you want to swap patches on/off gear, choose hook & loop (velcro). If you’re attaching permanently to uniforms or fabric, choose sew-on. If you want quick application on compatible fabric, choose iron-on / heat seal (when offered). Backing options are shown on the page and update based on the variant you select.
Size is shown on the product page and updates with the variant you select (example: 3"). If you’re mounting on a hat or small panel, choose smaller sizes; for plate carriers and display boards, larger sizes fit better.
If the product is officially licensed, it will say “Officially Licensed” in the title and/or in the product details. If it doesn’t, it’s still a legitimate product—just not part of a licensed program.
Yes. If you see a note like “bulk reruns available,” that means we can support group orders or reruns. If you don’t see it, contact us with the unit/squadron and quantity and we’ll confirm options.
Yes—custom solutions are available (patches, name tags, lanyards, apparel). Use the custom request page and include artwork, size, backing preference, and quantity.
