* SenselessSacrifice: The incident [[spoiler:in which Lightning is killed]] could have been avoided. The Me 262s Mk-108 30mm cannons were devastating, but this weapon was designed for killing lumbering bombers, not fighters. The muzzle velocity is quite low, meaning in the [[spoiler:head-on pass that results in Lightning's death]], the P-51 potentially could have fired his weapons after the Me 262, and still had time to roll out of the way of the incoming shots.
