Lt. Hindelmayer and Stirling BK778/JN-U

Hey all

Haven't been here in ages, so I thought I'd kick off my return with a question.

One of my distant great uncles, Charles James, 34, was a Flight Sergeant bomb-aimer with 75 (New Zealand) Squadron during 1943. His aircraft, Stirling III, serial number BK778, coded "JN-U", was shot down by a Lieutenant Hindelmayer of IV/NJG 3, who was piloting a Ju-88C-6 nightfighter. I have tried to research this Luftwaffe pilot, but have turned up nothing; hopefully you will be able to help me out with this.

~ James
