I noticed this lot online today and photo 6 interested me. Looking at the group of five pilots, the two at the back look like they have different shaped pilots wings, possibly RAF. Anyone else got better eyes?

Al, are you sure it's not just the way the blouse folds with the different arm positions? Those at the front have their shoulders forward and the blouse would concave in around the chest area. Conversely the chaps with their arms by their sides have the cloth flat in that area. It might just exaggerate a difference to the eye?

I'm older than you mate - my eyes are going!

Youre probably right. Its not a clear, close scan, and I didnt see any reason for the change of wings, and was 50/50. I dont think there is anything particularly out of the ordinary as you say.
