Death registration for Hayden Ewart Augustus Hyatt in December quarter 1978 gives his date of birth as 27 December 1921.
Address at death is given as 19 Rodney Road, Saltford, Avon in the Probate Calcendar.

Nothing else for a suitable Hayden Hyatt on FMP.

The AIR78 records at The National Archives have only one RAF record for a Hayden Hyatt:

Hayden Ewart Augustus HYATT, No. 813208. The slip is stamped with an F in a circle, which I believe means he was Class F Reserve - an airman pilot with no previous experience. This class was supposed to have closed with the introduction of the RAF Volunteer Reserve in 1937, but I've seen examples of it used after this date.

The block allocation containing this service number was 800000 to 879999 and was issued to the Auxiliary Air Force.

My knowledge of the RAF is otherwise limited to the bits I know from my Dad's service in the 1950's so I can't offer anything further I'm afraid.

This is his birth registration:

HYATT, HAYDON EWART AUGUSTUS mmn POTTER GRO Reference: 1922 M Quarter in BRISTOL Volume 06A Page 347

His parents are highly likely to be William Hyatt & Edith MD Potter who married 1919 in Cardiff. They are on the 1939 register in Bristol along with a Marcus Griffiths Potter born 27 Dec 1914 who was also in the RAF and who may have been Edith's son pre-marriage.

There was also a sister, Honorine Catherine Hyatt born 1919. She was also living in Bristol in 1939 but was married by then.
