My Great-Great Grandfather served in the RFC during the Great War, largely in aircraft acceptance parks.

The relevant part of his service record is as follows

1.8.17 Appointed Temporary Lieutenant, Engineering Officer 2nd Class and posted to Coventry Aircraft Acceptance Park
22.9.17 Appointed Temporary Captain, Engineering Officer 1st Class and posted to Newcastle Aircraft Acceptance Park
1.10.17 Appointed Lieutenant
26.10.17 Watford Aircraft Acceptance Park
31.10.17 RFC School of Inspection (in Watford)
About this time he is appointed Temporary Major
21.11.17 RFC School of Inspection as park commander
15.5.18 14 Aircraft Acceptance Park, to complete (?)

As part of research into my family tree, I‘m trying to find out more about what his duties would have been during this period, and I‘m hoping that someone can shed some light on what he was actually doing at this time.
