Country: | That seems like a really big load for an He-176! Wouldn't it like snap in half or something? | |

Country: | Great models. And Comiso, that must have been a 3,000m strip to support your Henschel/glider project.

It wouldn't be carrying a heavy load really since, like in the case of other 'Mistel' a/c, the unmanned portion is powered separately with both a/c linked together. So the He 162 would be connected to and guiding it's bomb but not really "carrying" it in the same sense as a normal bomb. | |

Country: | Oh, yeah I meant the He-162
That makes alot more sense, so it was more like a coupled aircraft. | |

Country:  | Here are photo and scheme of Kl.35 + DFS.230 composite aircraft and photo of Fw.56 + DFS 230 joint. Both variants couldn't take off without help, and were towed by Ju.52/3m. After the take-off they flew independently. | |

| Yeah, but didn't the jet engines have to be replaced after twelve hours of flight time or something like that?

Country: | Off the top of my head and without checking sources, I believe the Jumo 004s (for Me 262) had about 10 to 12 hours before service. Now what the He 162 and others used escapes me at this moment.
