Hell I think I remember...

The other day I was looking back through I the posts I made, and in my early days of the ste they were spread out over a few days, one or two one evening, then a few days later another couple...then they got closer together, then Hot Space came and got me adddicted to spam

Easily the Me-262 and the Ar-234. Nothing comes close and dont tell me the Meteor. I think it was overated. The only thing that could have been better would have been the Gotha Ho-229.

I totally agree. The Ar-234 was somewhat underated I think. It never gets the recognition it deserves.

Thats probably because other than on a few cases it was not really known for any daring bombing raids or large scale bombings.

Shouldn't the He-162 and maybe the P-80 be in this poll?

I dont think the He-162 should be in the poll. It was inovative but was the "Salamander" really a great jet aircraft?

I forgot to put that in...it was rubbish though so it doesnt really matter.

The P-80 never saw combat either so it cant be in the poll.

Yeah I dont think either aircraft did or could have made an impact or be counted as the best.

I do think that with development the He-162 could have been a potent force...
