Interesting photo of a crashed RAF aircraft, probably dating from quite early in the War judging from the rather large fin flash. Any ideas as to aircraft type and date of the event?

All I know is that it's a RAF aircraft. I can't really tell the type as it's all mangled to pieces lol.

Obviously colourized.

The RAF aircraft is believed to be a Blenheim brought down near Trondheim. Fant våpen fra styrtet krigsfly bak loftsveggen

Can I ask if anyone knows what the badges are on the arm of the man on the left?

Tank Destruction patch.
They appear to be the Silver ones, which represent a single tank destroyed.
The gold patch represented five tanks destroyed.

In order to earn the patch, the soldier had to destroy an enemy tank with a hand-held weapon (satchel charge, panzerfaust, etc.).

 

[Glider]

Thanks for that, he earned then the hard way.
