Adriano,

This is P4903 UX-U of 82 Squadron, lost on 17 May 1940. Other photos have appeared on EBay of this wreck. I have seen one photo in the Larry Hickey collection which shows 'P490.' and '.X-U'.
82 Squadron used only one other Blenheim in the 'P490.' range and that was P4904 UX-B also lost on 17 May 1940.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.
