Are you 100% sure?
I have a downloaded photo of No 555 looking very different. Right wing sticking up. Much more burned out and the fin smashed.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

Bertrand went through the "culprits" No 550 - 559 in an e-mail to me. Initially No 558 seemed a very good
candidate but a photo supplied by him does not entirely fit, so there is still another candidate in his list,
No 557

Tricky this one.....
What do you think Bertrand?

Cheers
Stig
