Reims

Can anyone iD better the rear Battle - It looks like P2235 but cannot be as this went to RCAF in 1939

"P2235" 'D' RCAF 1312
P2194 'QT' -
142 Sqn 13.12.39 6 RSU 10.5.40 Presumed abandoned in France 6.40

I don;t think it is this incident

I assume serial wrong as that looks to me like when the aircraft are both at 6 RSU - was this at Reims

is the top one 'O' of 105 Sqn and not 'D'

Now for the fun one ! The other photo shows a Battle, GB-O, of 105 Squadron and a Hurricane with the individual letter C. While the O on the Battle is somewhat hidden in this shot a better image from another angle was also found by Ed West in August I think. This latter photo clearly shows it as GB-O, but no serial is visible or readable on either. Any ideas ?
