Sweet, 262 - didn't see that one coming.  I have a few close up shots of a real one inc. some cockpit shots if you need em HTC.

Talk beyond my experience?  I said it would never occur to me to try to rope someone in a 262.  That's true, it didn't occur to me.  I was talking within my experience.  Now, thanks to Strafing's post, I'm thinking about it.  It would still require me to lose more speed than I'm used to letting go of in the 262, but I'm willing to adjust my paradigm to learn and execute successful tactics.

Thanks, Strafing!
just fly the plane and kill stuff, this would involve roping, and full flap turnfighting, par for the course for 262 pilots in here! :aok

Thanks -

The plane is based off of "White 1" Eprobungs Kommando, Lechfeld June/July 1944.

Nice, but I think doing the 262 over other aircraft is a disappointment. When there are still far more commonly used and non-perked aircraft waiting for updates...

I thought this too, at first, but the 262 is one of the few aircraft that not only is on the old 3d model, but it's mirrored- this severely limits the amount of skins you can do (like the F6F).

Please, o ye Gods of AH, please let it be so.
... 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
