Re: Me 262 on eBay

Hi Nick,

Yes, damn those corporate abbreviations and acronyms! Too many and too confusing. DLH is what I meant.

Regarding the 'conversions' taking place there, I seem to recall writing something about this. I think my comclusion was that standard A-1a Jäger aircraft sourced directly from the respective manufacturers were being upgraded to the multi-purpose A-2a Jabo variant. This would entail the addition of the ETC 501 bomb racks as well as adding of the cockpit armoured plate (attached to the canopy) and other minor tweaks. I should think that this is a subject that needs some definitive answers.

Cheers,

David
