ME-262 Preassurized Cockpit?

Post by Fritzkrieg » Sun Jun 14, 2009 9:56 am

I wanted to make sure my ME-262 pilot was as accurate as possible, but I was not sure if the jet pilots wore oxygen mask.
I know some German Aircraft had preassurized cockpits eliminating the need for oxygen mask. Was this true of the ME-262?

Me-262 pilots had to wear oxygen masks.
