Default Royal Navy items?

Am thinking this 4 Propeller over “A” is Naval Air Mechanic? Hopefully this can be confirmed or Identified as something else?

Crossed Gold Wire Embroided crossed Arms badge is possibly Royal Marines as is on Blue cloth? Hopefully this can be identified.

The Corporal Stripes am lost on and have no ideas?

If the above could be Identified I’d be grateful, many thanks Billy

The 'corporal stripes' in naval terms would be good conduct badges. These look way too narrow to me so I don't think they are RN. The ones I have are closer to 6" across. Sometimes Naval Cadets have smaller versions of the badges so maybe cadet related but I couldn't sat for sure.
Cheers,
Alex

Found an old thread that states :

Royal Marines Marksman badges followed the Army pattern and did not have slings.
