De Havilland Comet

The World's First Commercial Jetliner

Colin Higgs
New Paperback Illustrated

Postscript summary

The Comet was a ground-breaking aircraft which laid the foundations of commercial international flight. With over 200 rare or previously unseen photographs, this book traces its various incarnations from 1949 test flights and the 1950s accidents that undermined its initial success to military use and its renaissance in the package holiday era.
