"I made a written report which is still today in existence. I have a photocopy of it, and I am saying that in production this aircraft could perhaps substitute for three propeller- driven aircraft of the best existing type. This was my impression."

Impression

"I would like to mention that I have flown the 262 first in May '43. At this time, the aircraft was completely secret. I first knew of the existence of this aircraft only early in '42 - even in my position. This aircraft didn't have any priority in design or production."

Design

"The throttles could only move very, very slowly, always watching the temperature, always watching. And even in throttling back, you could bust it, even being very careful."

Being

"Nine g's is good, if the pilot can stand it. We couldn't stand it. Not in the airplanes of World War II."

War

"I could not claim them because I was not supposed to be flying in combat."

Flying

"We had at our disposal the first operational jet, which superseded by at least 150 knots the fastest American and English fighters. This was a unique situation."

Politics

"Many pilots of the time were the opinion that a fighter pilot in a closed cockpit was an impossible thing, because you should smell the enemy. You could smell them because of the oil they were burning."

Time

"When I was fired from my post as General of the Fighter Arm, I was to give proof that this jet was a superior fighter. And that's when we did it. I think we did it."

Politics

"And most of these pilots were lost during the first five flights."

Military

"I had to inspect all fighter units in Russia, Africa, Sicily, France, and Norway. I had to be everywhere."
