An Air Landing was the term used for British Army, glider-borne troops. Air Landing units included infantry battalions and light armoured regiments together with combat support and combat service support units and sub-units. The Glider Pilot Regiment provided the aircrew to fly the gliders into battle (who were trained to fight alongside them on the ground thereafter). Although combat support and combat service support units had the term 'Air Landing' as part of their unit title, for example 1st Airlanding Light Regiment, Royal Artillery, infantry battalions names remained unchanged. All units wore the maroon beret of airborne forces with their own capbadge.
