Now we would like to know if this Hurricane is abandoned in Tournes-Belval...

On the link you will have an aerial view of the airfield in 1948 in and we see this one just next of some woods and not so far the river Sormonne.

Hi Bertrand,

thanks for reply - your link I can´t open.
If there is somebody more familiar with French airfield during BoF, can please check this theme on this forum about Aufkl.Gr.(H)21 during French Campaign

There is photo of Hs 126 from this German unit, and hangars/building in the background looks like building from imagine of this Hurricane.

If there is somebody with more info about this airfield, or have some photos of German units from this place for confirmation, it will be very helpful!
If you check this link, there is probably hangar from this airfield and again, build looks fine
