Re: Photos 10-23
So another Hurricane
http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=350114641367 NV-K 79 Sqn Rushed to France 10th May.This could be? 11May L2049? Aircraft force landed and abandoned. 16May N2426? Aircraft force landed and abandoned. 18May P3451? Aircraft force landed and abandoned.Reportedly destroyed? 20May P2634. Crash landed. The L serials wings/possible two bladed prop so I doubt the photo is L2049. If a location was on the reverse we might have additional info. The likelihood is it will remain as an unknown. regards Mark

Re: Photos 10-23
Mark,
The NV-K was clearly the P2537, as shown on another Ebay picture. Only the top half of the serial number is readible, but 95% sure it's P2537. Interestingly this one does not appear in Peter Cornwell's loss list. Cull et al "12 Days in May" report the loss of the P2537 on May 14 at Resnaix, bur Peter has this one as the P2635. Indeed the pictures suggest this is not a crash landed aircraft but one abandoned on an airfield, whereas the aircraft on May 14 crashed without a trace including its pilot PO Appleton. Regards, Pieter
