Re: Crash Landed Hurricane
I am certain this is a 501 Squadron Hurricane, coded SD-A. I have seen several other photos of this wreck but none with the code - or serial - any better. 501 Squadron almost uniquely used very large letters as shown here. Do not forget that due to losses 501 Squadron used at least two 'SD-A's while stationed. It appears L2045 was the first SD-A due to the dates it was damaged plus the fact there was time for it to be returned to England. There is a photo of L2045 on page 320 of 'THE BATTLE OF FRANCE, THEN AND NOW' by Peter Cornwell. Very neat paintwork on that Hurricane as one might expect.
