Early Access: Inside The Cockpit - Me 262 (Flying Example)
Added 2023-07-20 01:06:09 +0000 UTCThe Messerschmitt Me 262 was the first mass-produced operational jet. Flown by the Luftwaffe during World War 2, it was a milestone in aviation. Join me on this full tour of a flying Me 262 maintained by the Messerschmitt Foundation, Manching, Germany and Airbus Flight Heritage.

2023-07-22 12:48:55 +0000 UTCI visited the hangar several times (in Everett, Washington) where these reproduction planes were built. I work on new planes every day and it was fun to see these in comparison to what the planes look like that I work on. Great to see one of them in detail again. It's amazing how simple the construction of these are - but yet be so cutting edge (for the 1940's) that they were able to out perform their piston engine contemporaries in so many ways.
