"Can it carry bombs?" asked Adolf Hitler.

Willy Messerschmitt thought quickly and answered "Certainly if we develop the larger Project 1061 rather than Project 1062, which could only carry the Olympic Flame from Berlin to Tokyo. Project 1061 will be able to carry at least 4 tons of bombs from Germany to New York or the Urals."

"I am willing to support your proposal. Flying the Flame direct to Tokyo will be a powerful demonstration of the superiority of German aviation. Even more important, New York and Moscow are the two centres of Jewish power and we must be able to strike against them. When will your aircraft be ready?"

"The prototype can be ready for testing early in 1939. Thus there should be no problem with taking the Flame to Tokyo. A small number of bombers could be available early in 1940."
