Possibly L5324 or L5524 ?
Am I imaging things but do I see "PH" which is 12 Sqdn code or "RH" which is 88 Sqdn code ?

Hello Michel,

Definitely L5524 of 150 Squadron, lost on 13 June 1940.
Crew; Pilot Officer A. R. Gulley killed, Sgt. H. Berry and LAC Donald L. Phillips both POWs.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.

Am still open on this.
Letters on fuselage sure do not look like either " DG" or "JN" of 150 Squadron code's.
