de Havilland DH.88 Comet

[randymcmillen]

Please build one of the most beautiful and sleek airplanes I've ever seen. The de Havilland DH.88 Comet, a two-seat, twin-engined aircraft developed specifically to participate in the 1934 England-Australia MacRobertson Air Race from the United Kingdom to Australia, which it won. Only 5 were ever built and I believe 2 in existence today.

One of my favorites.

Unrauv, may he rest in peace, built a nice one here.

I love DeHavilland, and especially the DH.88...

Got an ultra micro that I built...

And a few videos and commentary from other DH.88 fans in this thread....

FYI...the FT Cruiser design by Josh Bixler was inspired by the de Havilland DH.88 Comet.
