I want a patch like these for the U.S.S. Endeavor! (my Pontiac Trans Sport that I'm slowly turning into a shuttle) It'd look pretty cool on my CWU-45 flight jacket too!

If you look at the second one, of the runabout, go straight up from the eyes about an inch and you will see the word "HAWK" in light blue in the dark blue field!
So from that I would assume that Johnny Hawk is the winner as put forth by wizardofflight!
The other one has what appears to be a signature above the word ANTARES, but I can't be sure! If "HAWK" is in there I can't see it!
Both are great designs and I have them even though they my not be canon! They do however have the same feel as the "Work Bee" patch that was designed for Star Trek: The Motion Picture! So I think they "fit" well!
I bought mine off American Patches and plan to get a few others as soon as I build up my PayPal again!
I do however see two small problems(?) with the Runabout design!
With the bag of goodies over his "shoulder" I get a Christmas feeling to it! And yes I know it is supposed to represent the craft as a "work horse" not one of Santa's helpers! Not sure what would have worked better?
And I don't really like the use of human hands holding the bag ropes! They just seem out of place to me! Maybe the ropes loped over the Bussard Collector! With the way the Warp Nacelle is curved over I think that would have worked!
They are fantastic patches and I would strongly recommend to any Star Trek fan to get them!
