Official VT-35 Stingrays Friday Patch — Training Squadron 35 Stingrays Friday Embroidered Patch Friday Stingrays — VT-35's end-of-week tradition. This VT-35 "Stingrays" Friday patch celebrates the end of the training week at one of the Navy's premier multi-engine training squadrons. Friday patches bring humor and squadron pride to the last day of the workweek, and VT-35's version carries the Stingrays identity with a lighter touch. VT-35 is based at NAS Corpus Christi, Texas, where the Stingrays train student naval aviators in multi-engine aircraft operations using the T-44C Pegasus. Students who enter VT-35 are on the path to fly the Navy and Marine Corps' multi-engine platforms — P-8A Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft, E-2D Hawkeye airborne early warning aircraft, C-130 Hercules transports, and other multi-engine types. The Friday patch tradition at VT-35 recognizes the intensity of the training syllabus: after a week of instrument approaches, cross-country navigation flights, and formation training, instructors and students alike look forward to Friday's more relaxed atmosphere. This patch captures that weekly celebration of camaraderie and accomplishment. This Friday patch marks VT-35's weekly tradition. Perfect For: VT-35 Stingrays instructors and students, NAS Corpus Christi training command personnel, multi-engine pipeline naval aviators, and Friday morale patch collectors. Friday Stingrays — VT-35.
