Page 6 article about the birth of operational jet aircraft.
I wonder how many people understood the magnitude of the impact this would have on aviation?
In the article “on August 21, 1941, the Germans were reported to be developing a jet plane, but then reports died down.
I wonder what stage of development the 262 was at that point?
No reference yet to English and American development yet so was still pretty much a secret?
