Me-262 manual

Does anybody know if any of the original Messerschmitt Me-262 flight manuals have survived?

Everybody interested in the Me-262 knows the little "Me-262 Pilot's Handbook" from the post-WWII evaluation by the USAAF.

But I've never seen any mention of copies or scans of the actual German flight manual (which must have existed).

You might like to check out the ww2aircraft.net website. A fantastic amount of information available re manuals and specs.

Christian,
Have a look at this link. The first document mentioned is an English translation of the German original it appears. The second is the AAF evaluation.
