I think you will find it was a 14 Sqn Canberra out of Wildenrath, and it was SASO who not only saw the a/c below him on the slopes, but was able to read its number on the upper mainplane!
If it was 14 Sqn that would have been a B(I)8.
But . . .ooops!
The 8s, nor any Cranberries, had numbers on the upper mainplane. Must have been on the fus.
