It is almost universally reported as being coded PH-J at the time of its loss. The F541 just shows J. Presumably it was actually marked QT-J.

For what it is worth I still think it looks like L5226 (can't see any trace of a 7 at the end)
I have three photos from the internet, all showing the aircraft from the opposite direction.
To me someone burned the aircraft much later and with the much higher grass visible, the photo is most
likely taken later during the summer....
Cheers
Stig
