These pictures were sent from Brittany, this door was found in the vicinity of Vannes Meucon airfield.
It does ring a bell to me; what about a P38 front door ?
what is your opinion ?
Thanks, as usual
Gilles

The text painted on the panel discusses checking air pressure in a tire (tyre for the Poms)[45 pounds normal, 49 pounds overload], and testing the tire for leaks.
