Quote:Getting back to that 262, did they have to license that from Messerschmidt? I just have to wonder what the FAA regulations would be for a production run of an aircraft like that.
Ave Richard,
the former Messerschmitt AG dont’ exist any more. About 1969 there was a chain of fusions with Bölkow and Siebel leading to a new company MBB Messerschmitt Bölkow Blohm. Twenty years later, the ‘Deutsche aerospace’ took over industrial leadership, (now being called ‘DASA - Daimler Chrysler Aerospace AG’.)
All well known German pioneer companies were mixed by fusions and their remains concentrated to more or less one unit. So I doubt that even if a kind of copyright would be in force, someone would be interested to claim rights. For sure they might help reconstructing it. But how would it look to their actual international business partners, if they would charge licence fees for a WW II GERMAN fighter plane? :lol:
