Timeline
Vice-Admiral Sir Frederick Donald Gosling, (2 March 1929 – 16 September 2019) was an honorary British vice admiral, Chairman of National Car Parks, and benefactor to naval charities.
Gosling joined the Royal Navy in 1944 during World War II and served in the Mediterranean in the cruiser HMS Leander.
After the War, together with Ronald Hobson, he founded Central Car Parks, when the pair invested £200 in a bombsite in Holborn, central London to create a car park.
In 1959 Central Car Parks took over National Car Parks from Anne Lucas, the widow of Colonel Frederick Lucas.
In 1959 Gosling married Elizabeth Shauna Ingram; together they had three sons before their marriage was dissolved in 1988.
Gosling became a trustee of the Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton in 1974 and vice-president of Seafarers UK in 1993.
Gosling was knighted in the 1976 Resignation Honours List and appointed Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (KCVO) in the 2004 New Year Honours for services to The Duke of Edinburgh's Award and the Outward Bound Trust.

He was appointed honorary captain of the Royal Naval Reserve (RNR) by the Queen in January 1993; he was subsequently promoted to commodore and then to honorary rear admiral of the Reserve.
Gosling co-chaired the business until he retired in 1998.
In 1998 during the Kosovo War, Gosling arranged a rendezvous with the submarine HMS Splendid aboard his motor yacht Leander G to provide the men on board with fresh stores and allow them a few hours aboard the yacht in order to shower and rest.
In April 2012, he became Vice-Admiral of the United Kingdom, an honorific position sub-ordinate to the Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom, the Duke of Edinburgh.
