It has been reported that Carey was in QO-T - So would be interested in the serial and who was the pilot of this

Hi Paul,

yes, probably L1932 - there is photo from the right side, serial number is visible and last digit is 2 or 7 (L1937?):

There is photo of L1937, and camo scheme looks different:

So probably L1932.

Asisbiz (whoever that is) should be treated with caution.
L1937 was destroyed 10 Oct 1939 6km south of Dorking, Surrey and I doubt it ever landed on any French soil.
Photo must be a line up before the war, most likely on the units homebase in 1939.
Also the code OP was the units pre-war code. When it went to France in May 1940 it certainly used QO

Cheers
Stig

Hi Stig,

use just for check the camo scheme - it is different, so the crash landed plane from France 1940 is probably L1932.

And thanks for the info about plane L1937 - it is missing in my archive and you save my time :-)
