Faenor,
There's a saying in English "I have no dog in this fight" - meaning I have nothing personal at stake. I am not offended, and hope I cause no offense.
Observation about the above photo - the high slender wing monoplane with radial engine in the background - I think a Westland Lysander as the V-brace attached closer than mid-wing and the flap extends almost to the brace. Not sure any Belgian Foxes had radial engines (even if it's a biplane with bottom wing out of view), and Renards had rounder, less-slender wings. Would be interesting to see if the RAF lost or operated any Lysanders close to an airfield with destroyed Belgian Hurricanes. This would give an indication of whether RAF or Belgian Hurricanes.

Bertrand,
I trust your comment on the ground around Lille/Seclin, I would not know any better. I wonder where the photo was taken?
