Background:

The Messerschmitt Me 262, nicknamed Schwalbe (German: "Swallow") in fighter versions, or Sturmvogel (German: "Storm Bird") in fighter-bomber versions, was the world's first operational jet-powered fighter aircraft. Design work started before World War II began, but problems with engines, metallurgy and top-level interference kept the aircraft from operational status with the Luftwaffe until mid-1944. The Me 262 was faster and more heavily armed than any Allied fighter, including the British jet-powered Gloster Meteor.One of the most advanced aviation designs in operational use during World War II,[6] the Me 262's roles included light bomber, reconnaissance and experimental night fighter versions.

    @JamesBoA Lol
    Anyways, just so I can tell you, it’s a food joint near where I am that’s been around since the 30s. Not a bad place to go, actually. I really enjoy it.

    @JamesBoA It’s the captured American version. It discovered Steak ‘n’ Shake shortly after arriving in the states.
