Only if you believe the often repeated myths.

The registration is 4R+AS. If you have the In Action book on the Ju 88 please look on page 24. It has a photo of this aircraft and it clearly has the registration 4R+AS written on the flame damper. "AS" is visible as well on the fuselage. Furthermore the second photo below clearly shows "A" on the lower nose. I hope this convinces you the correct registration is 4R+AS, not R4+LS as often stated!

As for the gondola, please judge for youself, but I don't think it has one.
I believe many late Ju 88 C-6s with Schräge Musik had the gondola removed as it simply wasn't required anymore.
