Group Captain Roger Cave Porteous, DSO + KIFA 9th July 1953

Good morning for all!
I am seeking details of the flying accident ( aircraft type, serial number, etc...causes of accident) that took the life of Group Captain Roger Cave Porteous, DSO (RAFO 37867 ), Commanding Officer of RAF Wahn, in Germany, on the 09th July 1953.
Any background of this fellow officer who is born at Ootacamund, Nigiri Hills, in India and joined the RAF in 1936 is welcomed too. I do know that he commanded Nº 6 Squadron in Egypt, where he was awarded his DSO.
Does anyone do have a picture of this former Officer to share?
Thanks
Adriano S. Baumgartner
