Default RE: oldest jet in the world to fly again



Not trying to whiz in anyone's Cheerios.  This plane was credited for only 14 V1 kills of the over 10,500 V1 rockets launched at Britain during the war.  Granted it was the threshold of jet technology but they canned this model when the V2 came out because it couldn't even get close to shooting one down.  Still a magnificent piece of history.  Glad we could enjoy the ressurection.</p>
