Is there any recovery records anywhere, as for overshooting, the first FW190 that came into our ownership was due to the pilot mistaking the Bristol channel for the English one.. the USAF also recovered a light aircraft that couldn't get into Paris because of weather, so headed for Le Touquet, but finally ran out of fuel and force landed in a ploughed field in Kent!
