Re: Battle Crash
Well Paul
One problem. The photo attached has at least previously been identified as L5508 captured in France Cheers Stig |

Re: Battle Crash
The crashed Battle looks very much to me like L5325 which was damaged at Beauvais. From other photos I use to have.

Re: Battle Crash
I have to admit G-ASEA is spot on, it is L5325 at Beauvais. There is another photo taken from the opposite side showing the serial but nothing else to match the two sides except for that piece of tubular frame holding the two wings together.
Regards, Martin. |

Glad that is sorted out so L5508 photo may still be one left at Sougé, Loir-et-Cher Paul |

Re: Battle Crash
Gentlemen: This must be a match. The photo came from a chap from 1./KG 76 and they arrived at Beauvais in June 1940. With what Sqn was L5325?
