Re: Me 262 missing a cannon shell ejection port?

Thanks Roger - the change in weight would give an upwards movement, as on all bombers, but with the Me262 the change of weight being so far ahead of the cg would result in the nose pitching up, probably severely, and it is this effect I was wondering about. The Pilot's Notes may refer to some very rapid retrimming after bomb release.
