Re: Powered take-off device?
Bill
If you look at pages 7a and 7b of Werner Petersen's Flugbuch, copies of which I sent you some time ago, you will see reference to the use of this rocket assisted take-off device on a Heinkel He 111 on 30th October 1940. The Germans were using this technology surprisingly early in the war.
