There recently was another photo of the same Fokker G-1 on ebay:

G-1 330 (ebay).jpg


The 330 was flown on 10 May 1940 by pilot Buwalda and tailgunner Wagener.
They shot down a He 111 and a Do 17Z, and moreover damaged a Ju 88, a Ju 52 and several Bf 109's.
But their plane was damaged too, by Bf 109's.
The pilot made a belly landing near the town of Zevenbergen (about 10 miles from where I live) and both crew members survived and walked away.
The local population took parts from the plane as souvenirs and scrap metal.

No G-1 survived WW2 but there is a full size replica with number 330
