You could try a search in the surviving official Squadron record (given in the Service Record) and see if 43 Stn was mentioned?

Trans. RAF 1.4.18

The Royal Air Force was formed on 1 April 1918 when The Royal Flying Corps and the Royal Naval Air Service were amalgamated.

Later the Fleet Air Arm formed and before WW2 the Royal Navy had formed the Royal Naval Air Service (RNAS).

Later RAF records vary and how much detail was recorded back then and saved, I don't know.

Adm is either Admiralty [Navy] or administration

I thought "Adm" was short for Admitted (to pension)

Good point Shaun regarding Adm and the pension date on the cards.

Hansard 1919
https://hansard.parliament.uk/Commons/1919-07-31/debates/bda57afe-3efc-4978-89ee-7b2bd6e4c813/MinistryOfPensions

The word 'admitted' appears 4 times.

 ... and the local war pensions committees have been authorised, upon the report of the local medical referee, to make full advances pending the decision whether the claim is admitted to pension or not. ...

Interesting the link to Hansard also refers to convalescent centres.

Airfields and Stations

At the end of the First World War the RAF undertook a survey of all its Aerodromes in the United Kingdom.

A directory - entitled
Quarterly survey of Royal Air Force Stations, British Isles - was issued in six parts, and a set can be found in AIR 1.

Volume I Training Stations

Volume II Parks and Depots

Volume III Schools

Volume IV Home defence stations and landing grounds (aeroplanes and balloons)
 
Volume V Marine Operations stations (seaplanes, aeroplanes and balloons)

Volume VI Airship, experimental and miscellaneous stations

The Cat. Reference for Volume VI is apparently amongst the returns in AIR 1/2118

RNAS (Royal Naval Air Service) page 7 very brief (more in the book)
The RNAS was originally the Naval Wing of the RFC. The Admiralty took back control of the Wing from the War Offfice in July 1914 and it became known as the Royal Naval Air Service.
 ...
The RNAS was organized in a similar way to the RFC.
 ...

Mentions European places and simply refers to Coastal Air Stations in Britain and from Ships

Many of the most important documents on the history of the RNAS appear in
Capt S W Roskill, Documents relating to the Naval Air Service, Volume 1 : 1908 - 1918 (Naval Records Society, 1969).
