Not sure what aircraft this is. I think either British or French from the 30s.

I concur with gregv, it is a Belgian Renard R.31, more specifically Belgian Renard R.31s serials N28, N12 and N?.

Good info on the page posted by gregv, including another photo of N12 (2nd aircraft in the line up).

So they were produced in '35, but a majority of them that crashed all crashed in May '40? Any insight on this?

Crashed in May 1940 = shot down by Messerschmitt Bf-109s of the Luftwaffe.
