Actually, the tailwheel version of the Me-262 required one to tap the
brakes for
a second during the takeoff run to pop the tail up off the ground. Aside
from
that, probably not. Not too many Me-262's floating around any more.

How about the ones that are being re made from factory plans, even to the
point of getting original serial numbers? I'll bet that you have to touch
the brake of the new ones, also. g

I wonder how they are getting along, now?
