I'm trying to nail down the plane that Helmut Beckmann was flying then...Jansen's book shows a photo of a Black 7 but states he flew Black 15. I'm trying to unravel what was what...thanks for the input!

Sidney didn't say it wasn't a G-4, he said there was no white parts. No conflict. And yes, this G-4/R6 was officially shot at Leeuwarden in March 1943 as far I know.
