    Thanks for your thoughts: My grandfather was stationed at RAF Upavon (Central Flying School) from March 1941 to March 1944 so that fits with the idea of a trainer aircraft I suppose. After that he joined an AMES unit, part of 24 Base Defence Wing, and was in Normandy D+2, eventually setting up the temporary airfield at Longues, B11. I had wondered if the photo was from there but it seems highly unlikely. Thanks again!
