Replica ME-262 video

[Punisher05]

I don't know if y'all have seen this yet or not, but it's pretty impressive to me.

I know it's low-res but still! Couldn't help but think of Galland describing it as "being pushed along by angels".

By the way, I've got an electronic copy of the original German training film for the ME-262 but it's something like 100mb. If somebody can tell me how to shrink it I'd be glad to share.

Does anybody know if any of these replica ME-262's have hit any airshows here in the states?

No 262 has made an airshow appearance in the U.S. The first machine is having more work done at another shop. Hopefully the Foundation machine will make a few appearances once it is complete.

Here is an interesting video. It looks like a promotional video for the Me262 replicas. It also has some very good in-cockpit, air-to-air and tail-camera footage.

Hmmm...

So if you were the one responsible(OSH)for finding buyers for these(OSH)aircraft, at which airshow(OSH)would you demonstrate(OSH)them to achieve(OSH)the greatest amount of(OSH)exposure to the(OSH)largest number of(OSH)potential buyers(OSH)?

Maybe Wendover?

WOWSERS!!!!

[Rob Mears]

Are they working on the third plane, and if so, what name have they given it (White 1, Tango Tango & ...?)

[JimH]

The third plane is being worked on under the Foundation umbrella, no name or markings have been determined as far as I know. We are pre-selling rides and/or check outs for qualified individuals.
