	Messerschmitt Me 209 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Me 209 V1 Me 209 V4 The first Me 209 was in fact a completely new aircraft whose designation was used by Messerschmitt as a propaganda tool.
		The Me 209 was constructed in 1937 and shared only its Daimler-Benz DB 601 engine with the Bf 109.
		This first Me 209 project was soon cancelled, and though it never went into wide-scale production, Messerschmitt's design did make its mark with its impressive speed record, which was not broken by another piston-engined aircraft until August 16, 1969, by Darryl G. Greenmayer's highly modified F8F Bearcat.

		Messerschmitt AG, later Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB) was a famous German aircraft manufacturer, known primarily for its World War II fighter aircraft, notably the Bf 109 and Me 262.
		From this point on Messerschmitt became a favourite of the Nazi party, as much for his designs as his political abilities and the factory location in southern Germany away from the "clumping" of aviation firms on the northern coast.
		Messerschmitt had its share of poor designs as well; the Me 210, designed as a follow-on to the 110, was a disaster that almost led to the forced dissolution of the company.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Because the company was renamed to Messerschmitt after July 1938, when Erhard Milch finally allowed Willy Messerschmitt to acquire the company, some late-war aircraft (almost exclusively those built or rebuilt by the Erla Flugzeugwerke) actually carried the name "Me 109", in an apparently erroneous designation stamped onto their aircraft type plates.
		Me 109 is known to have been the name used in print by the Luftwaffe propaganda publications as well as by the Messerschmitt company itself after July 1938, and the Luftwaffe personnel, who pronounced it may hundert-neun.
		Messerschmitt responded with the updated Me 155A series, but work on the ship was again canceled and the Me 155 was later re-purposed as a high-altitude interceptor.

	Messerschmitt Bf-109 - The Air Combat Wiki
		Willy Messerschmitt's masterpiece, the Bf-109, was the prototypical modern fighter at the beginning of the war and was still going strong at war's end six years later.
		The compression ratio was raised to 7.3 on the port side and 7.5:1 on the starboard side cylinders and the maximum rpm was raised to 2800.
		The fuselages with their DB 601E engines were unchanged apart from the addition of a lower keel member to support the main landing gear legs, which were moved to the centerline and designed to extend to a more vertical configuration.

	Me-209
		At the end of May, Messerschmitt was unpleasantly surprised by the speed record set by the Heinkel He-100 V-8.
		This caused the plans to be revised and instead of trying for the record with the V-3, the V-1 was hurriedly equipped with the DB 601ARJ engine which gave a maximum output of 1550hp.
		Since the number of DB 603G engines was limited, the RLM requested Messerschmitt to fit his aircraft with the Jumo 213.

	About the Awesome Messerschmitt ME-209 pre war Racing Airplane
		The Me 209 was intended from the outset as a record breaker but the basic fuselage was used in the otherwise totally different Me 209 V4 in the effort to build a Bf 109 succesor.
		With only superficial resemblance to the Bf lO9, the Me 209 was tailored around a specially-built DaimlerBenz DB 601ARJ engine with a take-off rating of 1342 kW (1 800 hp), which could be boosted to a peak of 1715 kW (2,300 hp) for very short periods.
		This capability proved sufficient for the Me 209 to set a new record, Flugkapitan Fritz Wendel flying the first specially-prepared proto type on 26 April 1939 at an average speed of 755.136 km/h (469.22 mph).

	The Messerschmitt Me-262 Schwalbe / Sturmvogel
		Messerschmitt answered without hesitation that the Me-262 had been designed from the outset to carry 500 kilograms (1,100 pounds) of bombs, could possibly carry twice as much, and would be easy to adapt to the "Jabo" role.
		Messerschmitt was straining to keep up with demands for production of existing aircraft types, a difficulty compounded by a devastating Allied air raid on the company's plant at Regensburg on 17 August 1943.
		By the end of the war, Messerschmitt was working on a prototype of the improved "Me-262B-2a" night fighter with a longer fuselage, increased fuel capacity, and most importantly "Berlin" centimetric radar, with improved range and resolutions and a dish hidden in the nose, instead of the clumsy and drag-inducing "antlers" of the long-wavelength radar.

	Messerschmitt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Messerschmitt-Bölkow-Blohm (MBB) is a famous German aircraft manufacturer, known primarily for its World War II fighter aircraft, notably the Bf 109 and Me 262.
		The Messerschmitt story begins with Professor Willy Messerschmitt joining the Bayerische Flugzeugwerke in Augsburg/Bavaria in 1927 and forming a design team.
		In practise, due the RLM naming system, all Messerschmitt aircraft from 108 to 163 are designated with Bf prefix, all afterwards as Me.

	FlightSim.Com Feature: Great Airplanes 4: Messerschmitt 262
		The Me 262 might seem a strange choice because it wasn't the first jet powered plane to fly; nor, fortunately for the Allies, was it produced in particularly large numbers.
		Allied aviators reported encounters with the Me 262 in awed tones, but it wasn't that long before it was proved that shooting one down was possible, the trick being to catch the jet as it slowed in an evasive maneuver, or as the 262 was throttled back to avoid overhauling a target.
		As Galland's comment indicates, the Me 262 was a pilot's airplane that was docile in normal flight regimes with well harmonized controls and packing a terrific punch thanks to the four 30 mm cannon with which it was equipped.

		The "Me 209" was constructed as record plane in 1937.
		In 1943, when Kurt Tank worked on his "Ta 152", Messerschmitt facilities remembered again the "Me 209" and it was planned to construct a competition design to the "Ta 152".
		Because some leaders in RLM feared, that the new developed jetfighter "Me 262" would at first have some difficulties, it was planned to install the new jet-engines in a plane, as fast as possible.

		In 1930, Messerschmitt was appointed Honorary Professor of Aircraft Construction at the Technical College in Munich.
		At his Messerschmitt Works in Augsburg he produced a series of outstanding fighter planes remarkable for their speed, including the Me - 209 and the famous single - seater Me - 109, which was first publicly displayed at the 1936 Olympics in Berlin, and was subsequently tested and proven during the Spanish Civil War.
		During World War II, the Me - 109 was a highly successful fighter plane utilized extensively in the Polish campaign, in the Low Countries and Scandinavia, not meeting a real challenge until the Battle of Britain.

	Warbirds: / Messerschmitt Me 209 / Me 309 / Me 609
		Messerschmitt probeerde verschillende jagers als opvolger voor de Bf 109, maar geen van deze was succesvol, de Bf 109 bleef de meest belangrijke jager van het begin tot het einde van de tweede wereldoorlog.
		Dit vernieuwde toestel kreeg de benaming Me 209 V5 en het vloog voor het eerst op 12 mei 1939, zijn besturing was echter zeer slecht en de aanpassingen die men uitvoerde om dit te verbeteren zorgde enkel voor een groter gewicht, zodat het uiteindelijk niet sneller vloog dan de Bf 109E.
		Opnieuw kwam Messerschmitt met een opvolger op de proppen, de Me 309, dit toestel was een volledig nieuw ontwerp doch echter een complete mislukking, om die reden besloot men om verder te gaan met het ontwerp van de Bf 109G, dit werd de Me 209II

	The ME
		Even when Messerschmitt took to the air himself for the first time (in 1925) the M17 in which he was flying crashed, putting him in hospital for some time.
		The most fantastic of Messerschmitt's war-time designs was the Me 321, a giant glider able to carry a tank that led to the Me 323, a development fitted with engines that could carry up to 130 men.
		Soon given the official designation Bf 108, the experience gained by Messerschmitt in developing this little aircraft led to the most important German fighter of World War II, the Messerschmitt 109, in particular the Bf 109E which was the main Luftwaffe fighter during the Battle of Britain.

	Blohm & Voss
		To meet this need, the Messerschmitt designed the Me 155B and after a clumsy, protracted development period, Blohm & Voss took over and transformed the design into a promising, though technically challenging experimental aircraft called the BV 155.
		French progress to develop the Me 155B was so slight that Messerschmitt stopped the work and refocused its own design staff on developing the Me 209 (a pre-war design that set a world speed record in 1939) to meet the Extremer Höhenjäger requirement.
		Late in January 1944, the RLM directed Messerschmitt to transfer the whole project to Blohm & Voss and the BV 155 was born.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Germany
		Messerschmitt and his joint manager Herr Kokothanki, obtained a contract from a Romanian cartel, to develop the M-37 light transport.
		Protests were made against Messerschmitt's acceptance of a foreign contract, but Willy Messerschmitt argued that due to a lack of home support, he was forced to seek contracts outside of Germany.
		This version was often referred to as the Me 109, but official German documentation referred to as the Bf 109, referring to the Bayerische Flugzeugwerke, although the company was reorganized as Messerschmitt A.G. in July, 1938.

	AirToAirCombat.Com: Messerschmitt Bf-109: Me-209, Me-309, Me-209-II
		Willy Messerschmitt decided to see if the racer might make a good fighter, and came up with the "Me-209V4" prototype, which performed its initial flight on 12 May 1939.
		Messerschmitt did complete one more aircraft in the series, the "Me-309V4", which was the prototype for the proposed "Me-309A-2" heavy fighter, with an armament of no less than four MG-131s, two MG-151/20s, and two MK-108s!
		The last evolved version of the Bf-109 that Messerschmitt tried to build was the "Me-209-II", which confusingly had nothing to do with the original Me-209 racer.
