Great photo, isnt much online about 733 which was a purely wartime squadron, disbanding altogether in 47 when they were repatriated I would imagine. You can see they flew Spitfires though, I dont think 733 ever served on carriers so they wouldnt have been the Seafires carrier ops demanded.
Earlier in the war they flew Fairey Barracudas and Battles the latter not being a popular aircraft.

Did your dad serve when they were in Trincomalee in Ceylon?

I dont think they were a front line squadron Foxy, have found out they were a Fleet requirements unit.
