White One Flies Again

First Successful Wheels-Up Flight In Washington State

The WWII ME262 German Fighter Jet “White One” completed the 8th test flight in Everett, WA this week.  Reports from the scene say it was an especially exciting test flight, as it marked the first successful "wheels up" flight of the White 1 airplane since January, 2003 (below). 

To the relief and delight of the ME262 Project team, touchdown and roll-out by test pilot Wolfgang Czaia was described as "picture perfect."  The landing gear performed flawlessly, and the aircraft made two 90° turns at the end of the landing roll with no problems whatsoever. 

The flight is a significant "milestone" for the Project as completion of the FAA flight test requirement draws closer.  Engine runs have also begun on the second flying aircraft, known as "Tango Tango."
