Re: Seeking ID of this crashed French a/c.

Unfortunately, there's not much to go on by way of recognition features. Looking at it again, I could be totally wrong. The fuselage may be upside down (which would make sense given the alignment of the wings, which would make it a high-mounted tailplane.

I'm still struggling with this one - it looks too small to be a heavy bomber of the Whitley/Manchester class but I can't come up with a better alternative for the 1939-1940 period. Given that we can only see the underside of the port wing, I suppose it could be a fighter rather than a bomber (wearing the black/white recognition markings).

Sheesh...you know how to pick 'em, Larry!!!
