Pete in Lincs Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Link to a set of pictures taken at Wright field in 1945. They show two Me262's which were evaluated by the USAF. Lots of detail down to the airframe structure. http://www.network54.com/Forum/149674/message/1511394394/Captured+Me+262+A-1a+Schwalbe+%40+Wright+Field+July+1945+... I found the link on hyperscale.com. Hopefully no one there will mind me doing this here. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a new internet modeling friend who has flown everything from F-86's to F-101's and he flew A-1H's in SEA with the 601st SOS, and he loved the old brute....the stories he has told me about his flying career are unbelieveable!

Mike Usually my favourite a/c, you can't go wrong with the products of the Douglas aircraft company, Dakota, Skyhawk, B-26, DC-9, B-66/A3, F-4, F-18, to name just a few, they haven't made many duffers.

Pete in Lincs Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 You're all very welcome. I just find this stuff and pass it on. My thanks go to the original poster over there. The 262 is one of my favourite aircraft, but I doubt I'll build another anytime soon, I have too much other stuff to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
