It is

I have pointed it out somewhere else on TOCH to Ed, possibly on the German Interest link.

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

Hi all,

I´m trying match these photos with correct plane:
https://www.ebay.de/itm/S171-Foto-We...gAAOSwTGZct3S9
https://www.ebay.de/itm/S172-Fotos-W...UAAOSwxvtct3Vy

The middle letter from codes looks like Y or X - if the date 10.5.1940 is correct then my tip is this Blenheim:

I´m looking for more info and thanks for discussion.

Hi Kaiyan, then the date doesn´t match :-(

If this is Blenheim abd date 10.5.1940 is correct, then only possibilities are:
21. SQ - squadron code YH and then full marking is YHoX or YHoY - but I have no losses for this squadron
57. SQ - squadron code DX and then full marking is DXoY - this squadron lost L9245 over Netherland - https://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/wiki.php?id=54116

But who knows ….

1 & 2. The first two Hurricane photos show P2644 which crashed at Marignane in France on 8 June 1940 during the first overland Hurricane ferry flight from England to the Middle East.
3. Almost certainly in Greece 1941 due to the mountain in the background and the Vokes filter.
4. P2873 'K' of 607 Squadron, damaged in France 18 May 1940 and later burnt.
5. No idea.
6. Hurricane Z4320 'WR' of 40 SAAF Squadron, crash-landed in the desert 10 April 1942.
9. Tomahawk 'KJ-I' of 4 SAAF Squadron crash-landed in the desert.

Regards,

Martin Gleeson.
