Best Answer

The Me262 and the Gloster meteor represented the major advance in air transport (military and civil). For one thing the speed of sound was being approached causing problems with propellers and wings on prop planes. On top of that it was possible to generate more power with jets. I cannot imagine an SR71 travelling at mach 3. Joke
