Was he first to score 5 kills in Me-262? Trekphiler 03:24, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
Acording to Hugh Morgan and John Weal, the first Jet kill could have been a Mosquito by Leutnant Alfred Schreiber on 26 July 1944. The second victory by Schreiber (reconnaissance Spitfire) remains unconfirmed. So the Morgan and Weal conclude that the first Jet kill in history was the confirmed destruction of a No 540 Sqn Mosquito PR XVI. On 15 August, Feldwebel Helmut Lennartz claimed a B-17G from 303rd BG. These two were the first confirmed Jet pilots claiming victories. The question about the first Jet ace (5 kills) remains unanswered. MisterBee1966 12:00, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
