Ah let's derail this.

1. The duration let a lot to be desired but it was enough to get up and shoot at your bombers. That's what it was meant for and it could do it.
2. All jets suffered from flameouts back then and the Me 262 had two engines and could easily fly with only one left (if it didn't happen on final approach where the pilot hasn't had the speed or altitude to react...).
3. Aren't you confusing that with the Me 163?
