Question More Questions about Hurricanes

Hi,

Some more questions about hawker hurricanes.

From information gleaned from books and websites I find that the Hurricanes that were earmarjked for Finland were flown over from the late February early March of 1940.

RAF serials for twelve a/c but so far only eleven havbe I been able to find.
They are -
N2322;N2323;N2324;N2327;N2347;N2348;N2358;N2392;N2 393;N2394 and N2395.

However as I said these were flown over in late Feb early March of 1940.
But I also have the following -

On the 25th April 1940 N2358 was in collision with L2013 of 605 Sqdn which spun in some 6 miles North of Thurso,Cathness.

How can this be ? Is the serial number of the a/c that L2013 was in collision with , incorrect or is the serial number of the one sent to Finland incorrect ?

And does anyone know the serial number of the twelth a/c sent to Finland ?

Thanks in advance
Alex
