Re: Me 262's runway???

Good evening ClinA-78 !

Some years ago, a book about German military installations in WW I & WW II in the Rhineland area was published by a local historian. Unfortunately, I don't have the title in my mind right now.

In this book was a note, that it was planned to built a large concrete runway in the area in question for German jet aircraft. There might have been some preparations as soil-examinations and measurements e.g. in the area which naturally caught the curiosity of the locals with the respective rumours,
but it never came to a serious construction.

When I find the title of the book, I'll give you a note.

Best wishes !
