H’mmm, Yes I have to keep an eye out for that one.

Done heap’s of 262 stuff, got past ” The can it carry bomb’s ” bit long ago, Tactical like I understand why old dolf requested it, would have been top stuff for hammering the beache’s D-Day, In Bang and out fast!!.

Mr first and Last was also correct, with what to do with the 262, but the Aircraft, the Donk’s, and the virtual end of the Luftwaffe, and German war machine saw to the end of all those dream’s.

The dude sure was a dreamer, Must have been a MAD Buck Rodger’s fan old Dolfey.

But as a fighter or fighter-bomber, the 262’s were really never up to scratch during WW2, the flame out’s and self destructing engine’s, gear letting go, and poorer training, plus the fact that it was just so damn new, a totally new experience for all, who had in service hand’s job’s on with these Aircraft.

I think there was at least one Ex Bomber pilot, that converted sucessfully, but many many more 262’s and pilot’s were lost in accident’s, other than combat, and bombed field’s.

Anyway, I don’t really want to turn this in to a 262 thread, that will do.

Ciao all
