ROYAL AIR FORCE LAKENHEATH, England — Throughout the years, many pilots have flown with mascots or various trinkets on their flights. Some may call it superstition, but special mementos and gifts from loved ones can serve as a mental boost of assurance, or a little piece of home for pilots abroad.
One particular mascot named “Scoff the Duck” made a splash with the Liberty Wing and the local community. The plush toy gained notoriety through aviation enthusiasts over social media, and even had a patch designed and created in its honor.
