I know Chris has the A.I.(k) Report for this loss but thought others might like to see the report in full.

Re: Ju 88 of 3/KG 51, Godstone, 12 Aug 40
So is the current view of this incident that it didn't actually crash at Godstone but in the Solent? Or did it crash on land at Chilgrove?

Clint,
In the absence of any reliable information to the contrary I am of the opinion that it went into the Solent. |

Thank you Peter, I noticed that the Hampshire Aircraft Crashes site had the location as in the Solent also.
