Gotha 145
Am I right in the belief that only one Gotha 145 arrived here in the UK during the war/post war? The example I have in mind landed in August 1940 on Lewes Race Course, was impressed into RAF service and subsequently scrapped. I can find no reference to any others ever coming to UK immediately postwar. Can anyone confirm this?
I have acquired a rudder pedal for a Go 145 (ex scrapyard relic) and am now wondering if it originates from the Lewes aeroplane? If there were other known examples in the UK then I can only surmise it may have originated from the Lewes example. If there were no others, then the possibility as to its origin becomes a little more likely.
