Germany Part 18 - Messerschmitt Me 262
Amazed by the Messerschmitt Me 262 since young. It is still modern looking and looks functional even though more than 70 years have passed. The plane body is rounded in shape similar to the propeller planes of that era.
It was the first operational jet plane during World War 2 and it marked the era of the jet fighter plane. It could fly up till 900 km/hr.
I felt elated at seeing this plane in real life. It was very well maintained by the Germans.
During the trip, I bought a plastic model of the Me 262 in Deutsches Museum Flugwerft.
The other world war 2 plane which I like to see in real life is the British Spitfire.
