Me262 captured by British troops

Hi folks,

Does anyone know where and when the Brits first put their hands on fully operational Me262 jets?

I was reading Clostermann´s book The Great Show (I know there are many roors there, but it is fun!), and he mentioned that a flight of five Me262s surrendered to British troops in Fassberg on May 5th, 1945, after left Praga.

Is it correct?

Thanks,

Douglas.
