Me 410: "on a knife's edge"

[George Hopp]

In line with my note above, and another thread entitled "Kdo. Nowotny: Stop the Myth" here are a few ways to tell that the story you are reading on the Me 210/410 has not been properly researched.

1. It says that the first test flight took place on 5 Sep 39.
2. The long fuselaged Me 210 first flew in Spring 1942 -- usually given as April. It actually flew in Nov 41.
3. The Me 410B was powered by the DB 603G. In fact, the DB 603G was never put into production.
