Matchless - BPW 648 Also Ariels EKP 603 & DVB 216, late 1930s

I recently came across a photo from 1943/1944 linking these 3 bikes to a famous WW2 Bomber Pilot and Bomber Squadron
I just thought if the bikes were still out there it would be really good to link the owners with the information.
I have checked DVLA and none have a current registration - but if anyone knows if these bikes are still about I would love to link the owners with this information

Thanks for reading

Yes - I do not own the pic so I was just making sure that I did not cut out the owner of the pic by posting it too far and wide. The 3 aircrew are looking after the Mosquito of Leonard Cheshire VC - and yes they are all Civvy machines - Cheers
