    W.Nr. of unusual Me 262 with white, wavy squiggles

It's in the book, "Stormbird Colors" by Brett Green and Benjamin Evans on Pg. 37. According to the caption, this...

    Prop to Jet Transition

    Hello, could somebody quickly tell me what sort of training did prop fighter pilots need to the Me 262? Was it very difficult? Did they need any flight training at all?

    Multi rocket boosted jet fighter?

    So there has been very limited, yet notable, testing on the Me 262 with assisted rockets to boost takeoff, as the early jet engines had low power on takeoff. My question is this, could there have been a Me 262 with four detachable rocket boosters to help with takeoff? I also understand that...

    Messerschmitt Me 262 HG III

    So I was looking into the Me 262 and I found information about propositions to make the engines sync with the airframe, along with sweeping the wings back 35 degrees instead of the 18 degrees on the standard Me 262.

    Total cost for the Messerschmitt Me 262?

    I have been looking around for the full cost of a Messerschmitt Me 262. All I could find available is that the airframe cost around RM87,400, while the Junker 004 engines cost around RM10,000 each. How much did the mk 108 cannons along with the electronics cost?

    Hello, everyone. I'm working on a Revell 1/72 Me 262. I've attached and glued on a resin, replacement engine to the wing. However, after attaching the engine, I noticed there was a long gap that runs between the side of the engine and the kit part. I filled this gap with grey tamiya putty...
