The photos of the aircraft here are from my father's collection of original photos and the painting. The B&W photos were taken when he crash-landed at Hurstmonceaux Castle, Beachy Head after running out of fuel over France. He was trying to get to Biggin Hill 9/7/1941. Both flying a week later.

I believe the date against Wawn C N should be 1941 and not 1942. Thank you
