Station-based Wings
A typical Royal Air Force flying station (not training) will have the following integrated wing-based structure:
- Administrative Wing / Base (Station) Support Wing
- Depth Support Wing
- Forward Support Wing
- Operations Wing
On a smaller RAF Station, these functions may be termed squadrons but their role is identical.

Famous quotes containing the word wings:
“Girls blush, sometimes, because they are alive,
Half wishing they were dead to save the shame.
The sudden blush devours them, neck and brow;
They have drawn too near the fire of life, like gnats,
And flare up bodily, wings and all. What then?
Who’s sorry for a gnat ... or girl?”
—Elizabeth Barrett Browning (1806–1861)
