I thought the ME 163 was the first 'Jet' (albeit not 'jet' as we think of nowadays as it was merely a bloke and cannons sat on a bloody big firework) ??

great pic the ME262 they are my favorite and they are just a engineering marvel
steve the ME 163 was more of an experimental plain that started more towards the end of the war and did not do many missions also very dangerous. The ME 262 was the first jet and also did alot of fighting. Heres another pic of the 262 in flight still be uesd today for shows.
didn now these were still out there
are there any of the older type messchersmitt flying these days
The Me 163 did not use a jet engine,it was rocket propelled,and as you state very dangerous to fly.
