| I can't get to see this, my company's "Websense" program won't let me. But, I grew up near Glenn L. Martin aircraft company, and I remember in 1944 they were testing three German aircraft against US aircraft. I saw a bf109 and a fw190. I never did find out what the other plane was. These three aircraft were traveling around the US (with escorts) for different manufacturers to "play with". Wish I'd had a camera.... Charles

| Wow, good find. I wonder how it felt to climb into a rocket-powered bomb.
