RC,

“The answer above is not what you asked I do not believe.”

You are exactly correct. I think I have grasped the taking off/landing vulnerability of the 262 from previous attempts ;-)

So how fast were the Mig 15’s going when attacking a B-29?

I seem to remember an attack from the rear could be deadly for the Mig.
