I don't think so. The Me-262 in Holland was downed at 17 30-17 40, near Volkel base which seams possible to me.
The difference TODAY is 1 hour.

I've read that Dutch time and German time differed 01:40 back in 1940, I do not know where this dutch time stood relative to GMT, but you see that things may not be so straightforward afterall.
