The End wasn't The End - Found a new home after the great exodus of 2012

It was overall a better plane than the Me-262, a fraction of the price and a better performer. It needed adjustment to its wing camber to stabilize its handling, a minor change that almost every airplane gets as it’s tested. Successes like the F4U Corsair and F-4 Phantom had much more extreme adjustments, it’s totally common. But Hitler forbade the change because it was past the estimated in-service date by the time flight testing revealed what angle was needed, and the adjustment and testing would have taken another whopping two weeks. As a result the “everyman’s fighter” had exceptionally touchy controls and was flyable only by the most experienced and skillful pilots. The Me-262 is widely remembered as ahead of its time despite most of its “innovative” features (aside from jet propulsion itself) being accidents or kludges, and the mostly superior He-162 is largely forgotten.
