"THE GREAT GAZOO"
And I stand by my words - compared tro other German aircraft in quality and construction it WAS crap, at the same time it was one of the most innovative aircraft of the warThese are your exact words about this German fighter: "NO - although innovative, as a safe reliable combat aircraft it was crap." All that was said about the 262 was its performance superiority over all Allied aircraft in combat, nothing about safety and reliability. With its performance it is indeed a superior fighter to any other in that war. And that is not crap. Also, my contention that Allied propaganda was constantly at play is correct.
I don't have to, there are 36 pages in this thread and I don't want to go through your runarounds. Who do you think you are?
I'M AN A&P MECHANIC AND IA (IF YOU KNOW WHAT THAT EVEN IS) WHO HOLDS A COMMERCIAL PILOT'S CERTIFICATE AND I AM ALSO AN INSTRUMENT FLIGHT INSTRUCTOR. I'VE BEEN IN AVIATION FOR 29 YEARS AND HAVE WORKED ON (AS A MAINTAINER) EVERYTHING FROM CESSNA 150S TO DC-10S. I HAVE MAINTAINED AND FLOWN JETS (L-29, L-39, T-33S AND AN F-4) TO NAME A FEW AS WELL AS SINGLE ENGINE CESSNAS FROM THE 150 THROUGH THE C-210T. NOW I'LL TELL YOU WHAT I'M NOT – AN ARMCHAIR NOOBE WHO HAS MOST OF HIS FLIGHT TIME SITTING IN COACH EATING PEANUTS. I AM ALSO THE ONE THAT WILL BOUNCE YOUR SILLY @SS OFF THIS FORUM IN A NEW YORK MINUTE THE NEXT TIME YOU COME UP WITH A SMART@SS REMARK – NOW I HOPE I HAVE MADE MYSELF PERFECTLY CLEAR!
