From the news article in todays Jerusalem Post

http://www.jpost.com/Editions/2001/10/25/News/News.36905.html

it says "The two had flown out in August 1953, in search of another Mosquito which had crashed at sea"

Therefore from the list

: Serial c/no. Prev. Delivered Fate/Notes

: 2112 TE916 21 Feb 1951 FB.6, from France, w
: /o 7 Aug 1953
: 2113 PZ183 21 Feb 1951 FB.6, from France, w
: /o 6 Aug 1953

They had to be in TE916 (2112) and were looking for PZ183 (211?) from the day before. They are the only days that fit.
