Re: Ark Royal Swordfish collision October 1939
Further to my question,

What rank is LA?
Is this the Fleet Air Arm equivalent to the RAF's Leading Aircraftman?

I'm also thinking the that AB stands for Able Seaman?

Given that I found that the FAA did have rating pilots, it would still be safe to assume that the Lieutenants were the pilots?

Thanks for any help

Alan
