Reiner Decher is an MIT graduate and retired aeronautical engineering professor (University of Washington). He authored two engineering textbooks and a history of aviation engines and their impact on the design of airliners. He also edited the memoir of a US Army intelligence officer in WW II. He lives in Washington and volunteers as a docent at the Museum of Flight in Seattle.
This untold story of early jet development, surviving the collapse of the Reich, and starting over in America is recounted by Reiner Decher, whose father Siegfried was an engineer on the team that designed the engine for the Me 262.
