Found this interesting. OK now who has this song in their collection? :D

Trivia
The American hard rock band Blue Öyster Cult portrayed an Me 262 on the cover of their 1974 album Secret Treaties. The album also contains a song, Me 262, inspired by the real-life jet. The lyrics are written from the point of view of a Luftwaffe pilot on a bomber interception mission in April 1945. The song is generally technically accurate, correctly identifying the aircraft's Junkers Jumo 004 engines, and describing how the pilot's Me 262 is armed with R4M air-to-air rockets, which were operational at that late stage in the war.

Luck had nothing to do with it. Neither did skill. I really have no idea what did have to do with it. What was the question again?

Goerings on the phone from freiburg
Says willies done quite a job
Hitlers on the phone from berlin
Says Im gonna make you a star

My captain von ondine is your next patrol
A flight of english bombers across the canal
After twelve theyll all be here
I think you know the job

They hung there dependant from the sky
Like some heavy metal fruit
These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
Must these englishmen live that I might die
Must they live that I might die

In a g-load disaster from the rate of climb
Sometimes Id faint and be lost to our side
But theres no reward for failure - but death
So watch me in mirrors keep in the glidepath

Get me through these radars, no, I cannot fail
While my great silver slugs are eager to feed
I cant fail - no, not now
When twenty five bombers wait ripe

They hung there dependant from the sky
Like some heavy metal fruit
These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
Must these englishmen live that I might die
Must they live that I might die

Me-262 prince of turbojet
Junkers jumo 004
Blasts from clustered r4m quartets in my snout
And see these english planes go burn

Well, you be my witness, how red were the skies
When the fortresses flew for the very last time
It was dark over westphalia
In april of 45

They hung there dependant from the sky
Like some heavy metal fruit
These bombers are ripe and ready to tilt
Must these englishmen live that I might die
Must they live that I might die

Must these englishmen live that I might die...junkers jommo 004

Bombers at 12 oclock high
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

Who *is* that chick?
... missions were to be met by the commitment of alerted swarms of fighters, composed of Me 109's and Fw 190's, that were strategically based to protect industrial installations. The inferior capabilities of these fighters against the Mosquitoes made this a hopeless and uneconomical effort. 1.JD KTB
