Blacks in the RAF

I was just wondering if anyone knows the number of black flying personnel who served in the RAF during WWII.

I imagine there were personnel from Jamaica and the Caribean isles who served in flying duties. I do have an account of a Jamaican fighter pilot who flew with 154 Sq and shot down one FW-190 in 1945.
