Hi, better choice is this plane Weelington Mk. Ic L7792 from 37. SQ from the same night. Some of the part looks similar like on the photo on this site:

Its all in the detail Faenor, the seller shows 15 June but the actual date is 15 Juli, as shown
on the rear of the card. And as you say it has to be the latter going by the photos.
Well found.
Regards
Mike

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

The Battle is QT-H of 142 Sqn.
It is a quite-well photographed machine, but I'm not aware that it's identity has even been conclusively ascertained.
It is usually quoted as L5440, abandoned at Berry-au-Bac on 16 May 1940.
