I bet you’ve never seen a Messerschmitt Me 262 landing before! Here’s one coming into land at Oshkosh and just look at what’s lining up on the runway once it’s on the ground. It really is history in the making - a first generation jet fighter landing before a fifth generation steals the show! #messerschmitt #luftwaffe #flugzeug #aviation | AvPay.aero

Wow, look at this! The Messerschmitt Me 262, the world’s first jet fighter, blasting into the sky. Faster than anything the Allies had, but Hitler slowed its progress by demanding it be used for ground attack. By 1945, Germany also had the Heinkel 162 Salamander, the rocket-powered Me 163 Comet, and the jet Horton bomber. Imagine if they’d all been unleashed together… #aviation #worldwar2 #militaryhistory #aviationlovers #history | AvPay.aero

The Messerschmitt Me 262 in flight. The first operational jet fighter that changed air combat forever. Faster than anything in the sky at the time, yet powered by engines that were as fragile as they were revolutionary. Innovation always comes with risk. #Me262 #Messerschmitt #WW2Aviation #JetAge #AviationHistory #AvGeek Think Aircraft, Think AvPay! | AvPay.aero
