Digging through family photos and found this shot I took of my dad in front of a B-26 Invader back in the 1990's at EAA Oshkosh. I recall him saying he wished the ones they flew in Korea were in half as good a condition as this one.

The Mistel

Those "Mistels" are impressive ...

Just didn't see a ME262 Mistel tandem before - photo looks like a model plane to me anyway

Ahah well seen! I've been fooled !
If you look closely it's a model indeed. According to Wikipedia : "The final stage of Mistel development was of specialised purpose-built jet-powered bomber components, including ones developed from the Messerschmitt Me 262, the Junkers Ju 287 and the entirely new Arado Ar 234. None of these ambitious schemes, with the exception of the Me 262 mistel, had left the drawing board before the end of the war."
