Trying to ID photo of crashed 218 SQ Fairey Battle HAoR down nose first into trees during the WC.
Hello,
There are photos existing of two Fairey Battles with the code HAoR from 218 SQ lost during the WC of 1940. One appears often in the eBay photography abandoned on the AF at Aberive-sur-Suippes after 15 May after returning damaged from combat on 14 May. The second I have only one photo showing a plane with the same code but with the left wing sheared off and on fire down nose first into trees along what appears to be a road. The code HAoR is clearly visible, but there is no readable SN on the rear fuselage or rudder. Can anyone ID the date, crew, SN and/or circumstances of this second a/c or point me to further photos of this incident? Thanx,
