Good evening, everyone!
Earlier this year, out of a passion for creative design, I launched Petal & Prop Designs with the goal of creating high-quality items, starting with challenge coins and patches that celebrate our incredible aviation heritage and our journey.
After more than 12 years designing for my squadron, I wanted to create something special for our Delta family - something that reflects our tradition, pride, and history.
These Delta tail-flash challenge coins are built to last, featuring a bottle opener and a keychain hole for everyday use. Each coin can be engraved or personalized to mark a retirement, new-hire date, aircraft flown, or milestone — making them perfect gifts for family, friends, and fellow crew members. If you’re interested in engraving or customization, feel free to reach out [email protected].
Thank you all for your support - and for helping keep our aviation heritage and culture alive through design.
Very best,
Dave

Note: The Delta tail-flash challenge coins are in production and will be available soon! If you’d like to preorder one, you can do so at www.petalandpropdesign.com or reach out directly at [email protected]. These are built to last a lifetime and use very high quality materials not usually found in a challenge coin so they can endure day to day wear and tear. A perfect stocking stuffer for the holiday season!
