Re: Battle Crash
Hello Chris,
This is a new Battle photo to me, and a new wreck. The location seems to be an abandoned (RAF) airfield.
No matter how I look at it the serial seems to begin with 'L53'. The third numeral is probably '0' or '2'. Twelve Battles in the 'L53..' series were left in France. Based on photo evidence I can rule out all five in the 'L532.' batch, some of the others too like L5334 and L5397. None were lost in the 'L530.' group. That leaves four with unknown fates; L5333, L5338, L5362 and L5396.
If that second digit was indeed '5' and not '3' then L5508, L5509 and L5520 come into play, Again all final fates unknown.
Sorry I cannot help more, but I hope someone can identify this Battle.
Regards,
Martin Gleeson.
