Hi Stig There is a photo of F5685 in Les Rogers' "SE5A Squadrons with 84 Sqn. in post-March markings; from the right side with a presentation inscription ( a different style though) but not legible I'm afraid.

Re: Photos Royal Aircraft Factory Aircraft
This is it, not very good quality but at least no mistaking the serial. Not Clint's I think.
