Name

Other than the source in this article it appears that the unit was called Marine Aircraft Experimental Station formed in October 1918 and renamed the Marine and Armament Experimental Establishment in 1920 and again to the Marine Aircraft Experimental Establishment on 1 March 1924 just before it moved to Felixstowe. As the article is clearly wrong named Experimental Aircraft rather than Aircraft Experimental I suggest it is renamed to the Marine Aircraft Experimental Station or merged with Marine Aircraft Experimental Establishment, any thoughts?

A merge sounds eminently sensible to me (as long as I don't have to do it!). The history section would need to be expanded to cover its moves, ensuring that the P.V. aircraft are attributed to its time at Port Victoria. --TraceyR (talk) 19:42, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
