Seeking confirmation that photo was taken at Alencon AF, France, summer, 1940

Hello,

V.(Z)/LG1 was based at Alencon AF, France for about a week at the end of June and the beginning of July 1940. This photo appears in the book, "Zerstörer Gruppe," by Ludwig von Eimannsberger with the caption that it was taken at that base. However, the location doesn't fit with the markings and W.Nr. on this a/c, in terms of the career of Hptm. Horst Liensberger, the unit Gr Kdr, whose plane is in the picture.

Can anyone confirm that this is Alencon?

Thanx for any assistance.
