There's no descendant of the P-59A. But every airliner that flies,
with its engines hung in pods beneath the wings, owes something to
the
Me-262.

Not true. Just like every airliner that flies with the engines
embedded
inside the wings or fuselage does not owe something to the Yak 15 or
P-80.

Name one.

Boeing 727.

Nope. It had three engines in pods at the tail. One was served by an air
intake at the front of the fin. See

Rather like the DC 10, the L1011 or the Trident.
