and of course the real first
pilot- Luftwaffe pilot Hans Mutke flying "White 9" in April 1945 over
Innsbruck.

Utter and complete hogwash, Rob, and you know it. Mutke's modern claims of a
1945 mach-1 flight are roundly rebuked every time you haul them out. He
never
made any such claim until long after the war and when he did, NO GERMAN
RECORDS
SUPPORT HIM. On the day his friend was attacked and damaged over the field,
initiating his so called Mach 1 dive to the rescue, no "Weisse 9" was
reported
as damaged by his unit, by any cause. Bär, the Old Schoolmaster, was famous
for washing out any pilot who screwed up an Me 262, yet Mutke gets a pass
after
diving beyond the aircraft's critical mach, essentially trashing the jet?
Let's not forget that little problem of the incorrectly configured intakes on
the Jumo, which would abruptly cut off all airflow to the turbine at the
moment
a shock wave passed over it.

Everytime I see you parade Mutke's BS, I ask if you have bothered to write
him,
instead of just quoting that website. His claim does not stand close
examination and your determined use of him as your 'example' of a Mach 1 Me
262
is lame.

Now, bring up the Me 262 Pilot's Handbook from WPAFB, and we'll go over that
one more time as well.

Or you could simply try to grasp that Mutke's claims of an un-telemetered,
un-instrumented, un-recorded Mach 1 flight are un-proven, impractical, and
implausible.

PS, I am the Me 262's biggest fan, but I don't attribute it with superpowers.

Neither should you.

There are shorter ways of saying teuton is full of it.
