G-APDB (cn 06403) A rare look inside the cockpit of this historic aircraft. Havind made it's maiden flight in July 1958, the aircraft was delivered to BOAC soon after before making history on 4th October 1958 as the first jet-powered airline flight from New York to London. Later in her life she flew for Malaysia Singapore Airlines and Dan Air, before finally coming to rest here 1974 having clocked up 36,269 hours which was the most hours of any Comet built. Unfortunately it was very dark in here, taken handheld at 1 second. |

N888WA (cn 06424) A trip through time, at the Museum of Flight Restoration Center, to the front office of a Dehavilland Comet. Though painted in BOAC colors in the mid-1980s, this aircraft actually served almost its entire career with Mexicana (as XA-NAR, hence the plate on the controls). |
