980TH SQUADRON, ROYAL NETHERLANDS AIR FORCE
Official blazon
In azuur een vliegtuig van goud van beneden gezien en gaande over een turbinewiel met 24 bladen van zilver. Het geheel omgeven door de vastgestelde omlijsting met in het ovaalvormige plaatje de cijfers ‘980’ in sabel en met de embleemspreuk ‘curae cedit fatum’.
Origin/meaning
After the merger of Depot Aircraft Materieel and Depot Jet Engines in February 1990, a new emblem was designed for the Depot Mechanical Aircraft Equipment and Jet Engines that had elements of both previous depots. The background colour, azure, symbolizes the connection with the Air Force Command and the associated medium of air. The motto 'curae cedit fatum' indicates the need to set high standards for the maintenance of flying equipment in military aviation in order to guarantee deployment and prevent accidents and fatal accidents.
