Country: | How the hell do you get a MIG-15 at the end of WW2 except if it traveled backwards in time which is not possible?

Hope this helps. |

Hope this helps. | That I now of and was sure that is what he was talking about. I was just hoping to hear what he was going to say before I posted info on the same incident.
I guess I figures we might get into a long discussion on how the Mig-15 was operational in WW2.
And everyone would tell him: NO!

Country: | Erich are you talking about the incident on 03 January 1945 (I think it was 03 January atleast) when 18 Ar-234s were jumped by Spitfires while trying to land at there base after relocating from another? 3 ended up getting shot down, 2 damaged and 2 pilots killed.

Country: | actually I am gong to cover the Me 262's only, the Arado 234 is another story in itself and sadly not much on the day to day operations has ever been covered at length, it is all so brief
