Other than I choose to take STORMBIRDS and Jenkins statements over yours with regards to the reasons why the Me262 wings were swept..

Why? Well I consider them to be more of an expert on the topic than you..

Please don't take it personal!

Which should be understandable when you consider the fact that Dennis Jenkins has written more aviation books than most people own or have read, and that the folks at STORMBIRDS clearly did their homework during the process of building reproductions of the Me262, that were so good that messerschmitt gave them continuation serial numbers

It just makes sense to go with what they said over what you said

Please don't take it personal!

But look at the bright side..

I did agree with what you had to say with regards to the Germans fully understanding swept wing theory during the war, when you said

But as for the details as to the reason the wing was swept on the Me262, Ill have to stick with STORMBIRDS and Jenkins

S!
