5.0 out of 5 stars
Genuinely astonishing footage of a truly unique aircraft.,
By jason.absalom@scom.com (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Luftwaffe-Messerschmitt 163 [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This video never fails to amaze and interest even non-aircraft enthusiasts. The ME163 was the world's only ever operational rocket-powered fighter. Even my wife was amazed when she saw it take off, pause for a moment and then pull gracefully into a vertical climb! This is the plane that took two minutes to get to the same height that it took other fighters of the time half an hour to reach!Enhanced by the very eloquent and articulate narrative, this film explores in significant detail the full story of the ME163 Komet, with a fine mix of stunning original footage and present-day comments, including Rudolph "Pitz" Opitz, one of the few surviving pilots of the Komet. This fabulous production is so packed with pure spectacle and entertainment it will appeal to literally anyone who watches it, be they aviation buffs or not. It is arguably the flagship of the "Wings of the Luftwaffe" series, and stands out hugely against the backdrop of your usual "Discovery Channel"-style aircraft documentary. An absolute dead-cert, sure-fire winner for any viewer!
