Brass, enamels. Measures 37.4 mm in height, 29.4 mm in width; weighs 12.9 g. Two-piece construction: the airplane is a separate superimposed part held by wires. The inscription МОДВФ ("MODVF") on the red plaque stands for Moscow (Chapter) of ODVF.

In outstanding, excellent condition, extraordinary for any Soviet badge from the 1920s. The enamel is completely free of any wear visible even under a 10x magnification and exhibits a magnificent luster throughout. The gilt finish is beautifully preserved and bright, especially on the obverse. The details of the artwork are literally pristine.

The original attachment wires are completely intact and tight. The screw post is over 7 mm long, shortened by a couple of millimeters for convenience but fully functional with its threads intact, and includes the original screw plate with a stamped serial number "8918". Overall, a superb piece, extremely rare in this condition.
