Fergineer, just in case you haven't come across the RAFA comrade contact site at
http://www.raf-comrade-contact.co.uk/ , it is newish so still building a data base, but promises in time to answer all such queries as yours. It also works in reverse, ie you register, leave your details and someone else finds you! Good luck with the search, and with the resulting reunion, in which case just keep the noise down, there's a good chap!
