Driving home from the Seattle airport today (returning from Mark Potvin's birthday in NYC) I saw this plane wrapped up outside US customs. It appears to be an ORIGINAL Nazi era fighter jet. The Messerschmitt Me 262 was the world's first operational turbojet aircraft. Its first flight as a pure jet was on July 18, 1942. You can still see the Nazi markings on the body.
