Messerschmitt Me 163 Pt.2 Plus Me 263 and More!

Me 163, 263, and the B2 Bomber’s dirty secret I hope you folks like this video. There just isn’t a lot of really solid information on the 163, which means this video is a bit different from others on this channel. I have to interject my own opinions to fill in blanks a bit more than I would like. Please consider supporting this channel on Patreon: On the subject of Rocket engines, I didn’t say they are not effected by altitude, I said power doesn’t decrease with altitude. I’m basing that on the following statement on the Wikipedia Rocket page: “At full throttle, the net thrust of a rocket motor improves slightly with increasing altitude, because as atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, the pressure thrust term increases.“ Regarding the B2, those comments seem to have hurt some people’s feelings. First, I said the the B2 does NOT have a Lavatory. That IS correct. If anyone disagrees, I invite you to post a link showing that it does have Lavatory. I did not say there is no toilet. There is a non flushing type IN the cockpit behind the pilot’s seat. So, if they have a toilet, why use an adult diaper? It’s because the “toilet“ is really a small stainless steel bowl, like a tiny camping toilet and does not have the capacity for long trips. To make up for that pilots take “piddle packs“ or alternatively use adult diapers. Source:  The same pilot told me about the medication. that’s supported here by a quote from Doctor Capt. Caleb JamesHere is the quote: “For especially long missions, James said doctors will prescribe medication “in the event that those members need that little bit of extra push to help them stay focused on the mission.” Source for that quote: So, I have a source for everything I said about the B2, in addition to the B2 pilot I talked to. Hanna Reitsch. Since this isn’t a political channel, I am not all that interested in using up video time discussing her political beliefs. I am focused on her aviation exploits. There is conflicting information about her crash. Some say it was a 163A, some a B. In either case, she never flew a B in powered flight. The Official auto and Air Fan Store is Here!
