	Which 'site' do you refer to? What are you hoping to find?

	If it's a d.cert you're after, it'll be recorded like any other death. So if he died in Scotland, it'll be recorded there, and if he died in Canada, it'll be recorded in the appropriate province. I mention these two locations as many RAF pilots, perhaps a majority, received at least some of their training there.

	If it is WW1 military records you are looking for then a lot of them were destroyed by fire. Names are also sometimes mistranscribed. What name are you looking for. There are no WW2 military records online. They are still with the MOD. Kath. x
