Although no markings are visible this Blenheim is 'TR-X' of 59 Squadron, serial unknown, based on other EBay photos. However the photo was taken at Rouen-Boos airfield in France after the aircraft was damaged by ground fire on 6 June 1940 during a reconnaissance flight. It was abandoned there. At the time it was being flown by a 53 Squadron crew and was part of a combined 53/59 Squadron detachment operating from Rouen-Boos.
I have not been able to find the serial for this Blenheim but would dearly love to. Can anyone provide an ID or a photo showing the serial ?
