Re: The Curious Case of the NSFK Ace

I agree with Merlin and other sceptics, a man with glider and single-engine a/c experience at NSFK became a Me 262 instructor for the LW? If there were ammo and petrol depots nearby that would solve fuel and ammo problems but from where he got the Me 262 and who serviced and maintained it? To which training unit and organisation he belonged?

PS and how well a grass-covered airfield suited to Me 262 operations, after all the plane had 2 fairly powerful but delicate "vacuum cleaners" under its wings.
