But what about the ORIGINAL super motorglider, the Messerschmitt Me
163 Komet! The brochure might read:
- Super climb rate (3.5 kilometers per minute) gets you to 40,000 feet
in 3 minutes.
- High Vne (700 mph (1,100 km/h)), great for those Andes or Sierra
wave days

Snip
With wood-n-fabric wings, no less!

Bob - winter must be real - W.

Apologies for the double post. Both said my connection to the server
