- Rare Messerschmitt ME 262 "Schwalbe" flies again over the austrian alps at Airpower Airshow 2022.
Aircraft is owned and operated by the Messerschmitt Stiftung / Messerschmitt Foundation.
Aircraft was newly build and has new General Electric J85/CJ-610 engines instead of the original Jumo 004 jet engines.
Aircraft was piloted by Geri Krähenbühl.

In 1993 the USN loaned Messerschmitt Me 262B-1a (Wk. Nr. 110639), "White 35", one of 15 aircraft modified under contract by Blohm and Voss for use as a dual-control two seat trainer, to the Me 262 Project for use as a pattern aircraft to build 5 new airframes. (Walkaropund of White 35 in Pensacola - th-cam.com/video/648imiA0WCM/w-d-xo.html )
In January 2003, the American Me 262 Project, based in Everett, Washington, completed flight testing to allow the delivery of near-exact reproductions of several versions of the Me 262 including at least two B-1c two-seater variants, one A-1c single seater and two "convertibles" that could be switched between the A-1c and B-1c configurations. All are powered by General Electric J85 engines and feature additional safety features, such as upgraded brakes and strengthened landing gear. The "c" suffix refers to the new J85 powerplant and has been informally assigned with the approval of the Messerschmitt Foundation in Germany (the Werk Number of the reproductions picked up where the last wartime produced Me 262 left off - a continuous airframe serial number run with a 50-year production break).
Flight testing of the first newly manufactured Me 262 A-1c (single-seat) variant (Wk. Nr. 501244) was completed in August 2005. The first of these machines, Me 262B-1c, (Wk. Nr. 501241) was delivered to the Collings Foundation based at Stowe, Massachustetts, as White 1 of JG 7; this aircraft offered ride-along flights starting in 2008. The second Me 262A-1c, (Wk. Nr. 501244) was delivered to the Messerschmitt Foundation at Manching, Germany (Aircraft in this video). This aircraft conducted a private test flight in late April 2006, and made its public debut in May at the ILA 2006. The new Me 262 flew during the public flight demonstrations. The third replica, a non-flyable Me 262 A-1c, "Yellow 5", was delivered to the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum at McMinnville, Oregon, in May 2010. Me 262A/B-1c, (Wk. Nr. 501243), "White 8", (TBC). Me 262B-1c "White 3+1" has gone to an Air Museum in Virginia.
Dude, Sir.....thank you...Outstanding info. ✨️👍🏻
+ PaddyPatrone The engines are GE CJ 610, which are civilian derivatives of the military J85. On the maiden flight of the first example, the right main gear collapsed on landing and punched all the way through the wing. The analysis showed that it was an engineering flaw from WW2 when the Me-262 was reconfigured from the taildragger prototype to the tricycle configuration. There was weak point at the main gear attachments, so the Me-262 project engineered reinforcing boxes for the main gear attachments for safety.
@@FiveCentsPlease Yes, remember the pictures with the broken structures in the Wing. I think they also made changes to the trim actuators on the vertical stabilizer. This was done by Flugwerk in Manching if I remember correctly.
Its almost unbelievable that the germans had this aircraft in ww2...
This is just beautiful
Almost 80 years later and this thing still looks and sounds badass.
it sounds like that your usa is not evil😆
G E R M A N, you can’t deny.
Imagine hearing one fly over for the first time, and just wondering what the hell just flew over?
@@jackp.richardson6415 Oh, wonder that J.P. Richardson is alive again. Yes, german technology helped the Allies to proceed in building jets. The shape of the ME 262-wings are almost the same as nowadays airliners wings.
@@dr.wilfriedhitzler1885 Exactly! Wait what? I've been alive for years lmao
My jaw hit the floor... I cannot believe it. An actual ME 262 flying for real in the sky. This was amazing totally worth it.
Not sure if you're aware, but this is a reproduction with GE engines.
Not the original engines or for that matter, aircraft, this is a replica built in the USA in the 90's (no original 262's are airworthy, only Museum exhibits), it has GE engines that are lighter, more powerful, reliable and economical, the airframe has probably been modified to more rigorous air safety standards as well.
Very nicely reproduced though.
Cheers. 😊🛩🇦🇺
@@gregedwards1087 Thank you for kindly informing me. Yes I was not aware if it was a replica or original. Then again the fact that some one put in the time to make a replica is still amazing. And to see one flying about in the sky even if it is not the original is still something special to see.
@@welltell., in my research there are indications that the Flying Heritage and Combat Armour Museum in Everett, Washington has an original airframe and its original Jumo 004 engines that are being restored to flying condition, so there will hopefully be one in airworthy condition soon, a very rare warbird indeed.
@@gregedwards1087 Now that would be an awesome sight to see.
The Me-262 is one of the most aesthetically beautiful jet aircrafts ever to be built.
Every military-related machine the Germans made are gorgeous.
That plane is so beautiful and striking, even today. Imagine what people thought when it first flew.
The wing-geometry is the same as at any jet-airliner of today.
imagine the guts of those pilots who knew they might be attacked by something they can barely see, let alone catch or counter... true bravery if you ask me
you don't have to imagine it. Just search "ME 262 pilot reaction"
@@rickandmortyfan649that audio is from a documentary, it's an acted dialog (quite obviously) but probably not too far off the real reactions it would have received.
I can only imagine what it must have been like to see and hear that jet take off and fly during WW2...
It must have been the stuff of science-fiction...
The pilot is excellent, that landing was flawless...

@@mziadz Thank you 🙂🙂
Yeah...I would have been scared shitless if I been in that bomber with the ME-262 whizzing by...And even worse not expecting anything like that...
Ironically, that was when they would get shot down.
@@cjflv That's true 🙂
I suppose that after the initial shock the allies studied them and found ways to shoot them down...
This masterpiece is timeless and historical ,it's the mother of all the jets around the world,Adolf Galland was lucky that he was the first one who flew the first jet in the history .
Except it actually wasn't the first jet lol
The British (Whittle) invented the jet engine. The German He178 was the first jet to fly followed closely by the British Gloster E28/39. Early British jet engines were far more reliable than German.
@@mikekelly8377 Galland wasn't also the first to fly this plane
@@SuperEdge67 So what, the 262 was the far more advanced airframe. And its engines, even though indeed unreliable because new tech. combined with low grade materials, showed the future of gas turbine design using an axial compressor and internally cooled turbine blades.
@@wanderschlosser1857 + thrust tube with adjustable section, without steel aluminium coated combustion chambers and proper alloy the jumo 004 was a reliable engine, when used in ar 234 without the need of throttles moved constantly it was a reliable engine with a correct life span
Die Konstruktion der 262 ist beeindruckend !
A priceless aviation treasure and an absolute joy to watch it fly
This is some of your very best work. An amazing aircraft captured in a spectacular setting, especially with the clouds in the background. I followed the creation of this aircraft and its four siblings for decades, waiting for the day that I could see them fly. I've enjoyed all the videos of the flying examples, but this may be the best. Even the post-flight taxi footage is the stuff of dreams! Thanks again for sharing.
Glad you like it. Thanks for letting me know. Always appreciate constructive criticism.
@@PaddyPatrone I've seen the one at McMinnville. At that time it was underneath the left horizontal stabilizer/elevator of the "Spruce Goose", and it looked TINY by comparison. I have yet to see a flying example, but it's definitely a bucket-list item!
Planes Of Fame, Chino, CA, used to have a 262, but I think Paul Allen wound up with that one?
@@jonathanstein1783 Yes the Evergreen Museum has one of these 262's but only static. FHC in Seattle has one with original engines. Its supposed to fly again, not sure what it's current status is.
@@PaddyPatrone Oh? That would be ideal. As amazingly cool as this video and version of the planes are, I would be extremely interested in hearing what the original engines sounded like. I assumed it would not be possible to run original engines since in many documentaries they lament the incredibly short life span of the engines because of the lack of proper metals and alloys due to war time shortages. I seem to remember something utterly absurd like complete tear down and rebuild after 25 hours...? Anyway, I just want to thank you and say how much I'm enjoying your channel, I just stumbled across you a few hours ago. You've definitely earned a sub from me. =) Cheers from Canada friend. =)
@@ScumfuckMcDoucheface thanks a lot!
Perhaps one of the most beautiful designs ever to take to the sky. Can you imagine the shock and horror (and maybe awe) of allied airmen when they say this strange aircraft zip by at 100mph faster than a Mustang?
when I was in grade school back in the 60's, my best friends dad had been a B-17 pilot in the war and he told us that on one of his last missions a fighter he assumed was a 262 made a pass on his plane. He said rounds hit the tail and knocked his feet off the pedals as they saw a blur fly past the cockpit. He said thank god it only made the one pass!
@@obxbill01 A very lucky man, indeed!
Flying a Mustang and still being slower than the other guy! To an American, this must have been unbearable! 😂
What engines are these? Original Jumo 004? 🤔
@@obxbill01 Each pass was worth 4 x 30 mm _or_ a salvoe of 24 R4M rockets. (the 262 could not carry both simultaneously)
That crew was lucky. The problem was, the 262 was great to engage Fighters but _too fast_ to engage Bombers. They had precious little time to aim. And when returning to Base the Allied Fighters were always waiting for them, like vultures, waiting for the 262 to reduce speed and lower landing gear and flaps. Then they attacked, unless the FLAK in the aerodrome was too powerful.
Most of the 262s were shot down on Final. Not gallant at all, but fully effective. But it was a fearsome and magnificent aircraft indeed.
@@duartesimoes508 I don't believe so, they were way to fragile. Pretty sure I read they are modern engines.
I knew a man who flew them at the end of the War,I wish he was here to see this.
Saubere Arbeit. (und Glück mit dem wolkigen Hintergrund auch noch) Danke!
I always imagining first time this masterpiece flown, when peoples used to hear a rumbling sounds of piston engine from the aircrafts back then, suddenly they herd a buzzing sound of jet engine from this Me 262, such a phenomenal!!
Brilliant footage, and perfect location. Thanks for the upload! 👌🤘
Absolutely wonderful. Thx for sharing aviation history!
Germans are awesome!
AMAZING!
Sehr schön .
Was für eine schöne Erscheinung.
Such an icon of the air and it would be a treat, nah an honor to see such an historic aircraft that set course for modern jet AirPower
Thank you for posting this lovely footage!
I saw the flight of this bird live on 3rd September, very impressive 🥰
cool
Wunderbar!
In 1982 A client of mine kept a photo scrap book of her husband's task of analyzing the
ME- 262s captured intact with their German ground crews. He was US Army Air Corps but born in Switzerland and German speaking. That photo book would be priceless now.
Fantastic footage, thank you, I never dreamed I'd ever see one of these birds fly with a skilled pilot and I wonder how his report read.
...klasse Vorführung der Me 262 in Zeltweg ! ...als Herbert Tischler (USA) in den 90ern die Teile für den Nachbau angefertigt hat, hätte er das sicherlich nicht erwartet...
her lines , her Roar, her silhouette
I was searching for information for a school project, and to see this bird fly again was extremely suprising, shows how amazing this design is.
+@ragequit8517 This is a new-construction Me-262 and there was an entire website dedicated to the construction of these new ones for customers, with pictures and information of the process. Unfortunately, the website is no longer active and has dead links. The company that did the work was reorganized into a restoration business and they recently competed an A6M Zero for a customer.
Nothing short of freakin AWESOME!
Geile Deutsche Maschine. Das war Fortschritt, der jetzt verloren gegangen ist.
Incredible! One still flies!😁👍
+ Infrantry Captain 92 A special project constructed five new Me-262s for clients and four of those are flyable with GE turbines.
Un avion d'une finesse et beauté incroyable.
C'est l'avion qui a toujours fascinée Pierre Clostermann... 😀
Que maravilha ver isso! Um ícone da aviação de combate e da história da 2. Guerra e, talvez, da humanidade. Para mim também é o avião mais belo já construído.
Oh, my God, what a beautiful plane!
As already noted many times here, what a beautiful plane not only for its time but even today not to mention deadly during WWII. German engineering never fails to amaze me, good thing for the Allies that this did not go into production a couple of years earlier.
pure enjoyment watching this, thank you for sharing
Very nice replica!!
Thanks for uploading.
Cet avion est une pure merveille d'ingénierie allemande ! Indémodable et superbe !
I'm just watching this on loop, over and over.
I love the name Sturmvogel given to the bomber variant; one of the best warplane names ever
Both are great
Maravilloso video! El verlo volar trasmite la sensación de retroceder en el tiempo y ver al "padre" de los reactores modernos. Hermosa imágenes, gracias por compartir.
Most beautiful aircraft produced to date!
The Germans were so advanced.
was für eine wunderschöne Vorstellung (vor allem, was dafür nötig war) und die Landung erst...kann es sein, dass die jemand, der die reale Schulung auf der Me gemacht hat, durchgeführt hat? Nein im Ernst, absolut perfekt!
Soweit ich weis hat der Pilot früher Tornado geflogen.
@@PaddyPatrone hey cool! na ja, wer den tornado fliegen kann, kann auch 262.
Wow, the video of this beautiful airplane flying made my week.
One of the prettiest planes ever.
fast as a Falcon, Strong as an Eagle and swift as a swallow
And as deadly as a rattle snake

Tolls video und me -262❤vielen dank
One beautiful aircraft. I must travel back to my home country of Switzerland so I can see more lovely aviation
Still a beautiful and graceful aircraft!
Wunderschön 😍
I have a die cast model of this beautiful machine on my bookcase . It’s true - it’s one of the most beautiful machines to behold. I feel my 2022 BMW Z4 M40i looks like this amazing machine somewhat.
Thanks for sharing !
Beautiful , form with function
Даже не верится что этому самолету уже 80лет . По прежнему, красавец, стремительный!
Great flying!
Excellent Moi!!✈️💪🌠💫
A beautiful plane in flight.
I have often wondered, what British and German people thought, on hearing Jet Fighter's ,for the first time, flying over or near their homes, in WW2, and could see no Propeller's.
I love the ME 262
The footage was very well done! Thanks! Two thoughts come to me. We’re there any cameras in the cockpit for a later TH-cam? And, how did the pilot practice flying the ‘262? The landing was flawless. I am assuming the nose wheel was freecastering
+ Patrick Morrissey Several new Me-262s were made by a special project, including two-seaters. After initial testing, future pilots will be able to train and get type checked on the Me-262. There is cockpit footage on YT from the other new Me-262s that are flying.
Wooow! Great! Thank you. I was there at Airpower 2022
Thanks, more to come soon
@@PaddyPatrone Great! :-)
What a beautiful aircraft.
Love seeing rare planes fly again. Reminds me of when I was a kid meeting Adolf Galland after a presentation he did at the Air and Space museum in Wash DC. Signed a couple of books for me and was a cool personable old guy!
it's a replica. There are no original ME262's in flyable condition.
The ME-262 used the small diameter axial compression jet engines, while the British used the large diameter centrifugal compression jet engines.
The axial compression engines were a huge break through in jet engine design.
It is a shame that the US Army destroyed so many Me-262 aircraft after the war. Almost 1,500 were built, but only a handful of real 262s exist today.
yeah, only handful exists, and this one is a replica with american engines xddxd
I love how it looks like a flying Porsche
Thanks uploader 😎👍
Worthy to be called the grandfather of all jet fighters world wide.
*Beautiful 😍*
Its running with General Electric J85... most notably... Engines of the F5.
+ Markus Weissenböck GE CJ 610, which are the de-rated civilian version of the J85.
Amazing jet. It looks like a flying shark!! 😊
Absolute perfection
Wunderschön!
A very nice replica of the ME 262!
It's absolutely amazing and 80 year old plane✈️
Fantastic sight...
Top ! Lindo vídeo. Congratulações. Uma obra de engenharia de aeronaves impressionante para a época ! Fico imaginando : Como seria o treinamento de pilotos para o ME 262 ? Quanto a força G , oxigenação , orientação espacial , etc....Realmente uma obra - prima de jato. Abraços desde São Paulo - Brasil .
We have the information that the swept Wing was important for supersize flight, but we didn't implement it until 10 years after or analysis of it
So schön anzusehen in UNSERER Zeit und wahrscheinlich ein Schockierender für alle Gegner im 2WLK., sie ist einfach ein schönes Flugzeug !!!
Just ‘wow’
BEAUTIFUL!!!!!
Incredible!!!
Respect to Mr. Messerschmitt. Outstanding innovation, engineering, as well as maintenance and piloting capabilities
Cooles Video! Welche Cam verwendest du? Danke!
Warst du da auf einem speziellen Spotter Platz, oder nur ganz vorne?

@@PaddyPatrone - alles klar, Danke!
It's 1943, you patrol the german border in your Spitfire piston fighter and you see *that*
I would love to see one of these built with modern metals and materials. The original was insane for the time and could reach 653 miles an hour (Mach 0.86) before breaking. Now imagine better materials to put it together
... All flying ME262 are replicas, built with modern materials and General Electric turbojet engines. So you got your wish.
At the time they were built using slave labour so anything could have been deliberately made to go wrong with them .
Was there license agreement issues to work on this aircraft? @@louisavondart9178
imagine hearing this beast back than
Was eine Pracht unseres Landes dieses Flugzeug doch ist. Es sollte wirklich mal wieder eine flugfähige Variante der Horten 229 erschaffen werden.
Sie beide in der Luft wieder zu sehen, wäre eine wunderbare Vorstellung.
What a❤ beautiful plane .
Cool looking jet plane now I know why boc had one on their secret treaties album cover
Bravo.perfect
I understand why they had to use GE J85 engines, for safety, availability, and cost reasons. Still, I can't help but wish I could have heard what it sounded like using the historically-accurate Jumo engines.
+ xen84 Billionaire Paul Allen's museum has restored his original Me-262 for flight with improved original Jumo turbines. Testing is on hold after Allen's death and while new owners are taking control of the museum. th-cam.com/video/FPazuFQZE3o/w-d-xo.html
Magnifico avión !. Todo un hito de la aviación.
A friend of mine, Steve Schneider, received permission from the Messerschmidt foundation to disassemble and create schematics for the 262 back in the early 90’s. He built five of them and gave one back to the foundation. They were equipped with Vietnam era jet engines (new old stock). I wonder if this is one of them?
+@smurra06 Yes, this is the second example completed and delivered to the museum. It was the only one delivered to Europe and the other four examples remain in the US (three flyable and one static.)
JULY 2023
The ME 262, is the first jet engine powered plane, forget it's past history and accept it for what it should be acknowledged for, it brought in the jet age.
My view watching this clip is, it sounds awesome and it is where it should be in the air being put through its paces.
🇬🇧Ⓜ️🇬🇧🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Suena fantástico!!!!😮😮😮
Original powerplants were Junkers 109-004.
I'm listening to blue oyster cult's song "me 262" and trying to figure out what "they held the dependent from the sky like a heavy metal fruit" is referring to.. Anyone know what a "dependent" is? And check out the tune. If ur into rock songs about wwii planes..
The jet engines on this aircraft were quite proficient and you could see it as it rolls down the runway, the jet engines were amazing and the ability for him to develop this aircraft on the constant apartment that we've been giving them if they build more of these they would have won the entire wall,
I THINK, " Entire war" not wall
It's not the original engine, it wasn't reliable those days, and not up to present standards.
Сейчас выглядит великолепно. А в те времена это фантастика. Техническая революция.
