80th Entry Stained Glass Window

The end wall of St Georges's church is rapidly filling up. Our slot is just to the right and above the door area. You can just about see the contractor cutting out the old glass panel.


The RNZAF, RAF and Southern Rhodesian Air Force roundals are shown at the top from left to right, and the Ceylones and Burmese Air Force markings are shown at the bottom. The lettering and emblems are ground deeply into the glass before painting, making them show up well to the eye from all angles. The circles are made by etching the surface colour from multi layers of glass to show the underlying colours and, with the laminated glass cladding, making a really hefty inch thick window.




The Burmese window above was funded by contributions from ex Burmese Air Force apprentices living in Western Australia and our very own Gordon Eadon.
