[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2280564, member: 7157"] Not just on landing, but also on take-off as well. The Junkers Jumo turbine jet engines on the Me-262 were so finicky that they required gradual changes in throttle setting to keep from flaming out, hence the inordinately long take-off and approach method. Jagdverband 44, the Germans' ace squadron of jet fighters in late 1944 to 1945, had its own Fw-190 Dora-9 squadron for dedicated airbase air cover during the jets' take-offs and landings, and the 190's were forbidden from pursuing Allied aircraft leaving the area of the airbase.
