The F541 lists the aircraft lost as N1390 (no code listed), which is not correct (this aircraft survived until 1943 when it was lost with 24 OTU).
It is therefore likely that N1390 was KN-Q. Comparison of the Op Orders in the appendices with the F541 supports this.
Regarding code KN-B, a similar comparison would seem to indicate that this was N1508.
Conducting a similar exercise with N1362 (the lost aircraft) gives KN-K as the likely code.
So in the context of the original photo, the crashed aircraft was not N1362 as I suggested. Further ideas welcome!

Thank you AndyMA - my archive updated :-)

Re: eBay: Allied intrest

Hi all,

Spitfire Mk. Vb AD314 MNoW from 350. SQ - lost 20/12/1943 during Ramrod 377/I - reason engine failure.
Pilot: F/Sgt Leon J G Harmel (1807), some info from escape is there:
