According to the book Claims to fame:the lancaster by Norman Franks.
The Saint was a mk III Lancaster DV245 with 101 Squadron at Ludford Magna, Lincolnshire.The aircraft failed to return on 23 march 1945 on it's 122nd mission. Shot down by a Me262. There is a small picture in the book of the saint insignia riding a bomb like a cowboy.
