RAF Squiper (parachute packer) ww2

[50sqnwopag]

I'm looking for any info regarding a man called Herbert Lupton who was a parachute packer in ww2, he lived in Hebden Bridge and had a daughter but apart from that I know nothing else, he was a great uncle of my grandfathers. 
   Would it be a case of writing to RAF Innsworths replacement or because he was a lowly erk am I going to have little chance of finding any info on him?

cheers

Hi M

Even lowly erks records are still kept.  If you have a look at the following it might help guide you:

If his wife or daughter is still around you never know they may have his service record.  Have you tried doing a search on Ancestry to find his wife and family? If not if you put something on the name section someone may go hunting for you.  They are usually very good.
