You're right about the 163 Jim. The fuel dissolved human flesh. "Kinda dampens my enthusiasm for a test hop! Actually it was a pic of a 162 that Flieger posted that I was wondering the status of. I think it was called the "Volksjaeger". Pure jet so it might be doable. Good stuff you posted. Porsche people seem to love aviation as well as our cars.
