Some great looking displays Carl, as Nick said, I'd love to see the 262, I think they're a fantastic looking aircraft even today!
Very interesting museum, and you have also one part for WWI.
Yes, the WWI hall is superbly presented.
Nick, the museum actually have two Me-262's. The other, a two-seater "Schwalbe" ("swallow"), is painted up in German colours.
Below is a list of places where Me-262's can be viewed. I am not certain how up to date the list is though - if planning a visit, do check beforehand:
