This airplane has been retired for a feww decades, but through general knowledge. I set up a web site to commemorate the men and machines. Scott won the race in "Grosvenor House" G-ACSS. I have researched one of the co-winners of the 1934 Melbourne Centenary Air Race Tom Campbell Black, he with C.W.A. I am trying to get a photograph of the Comet's instrument panel so that I can make a reasonably accurate replica for the 1 /6th scale model I am currently building. Where can I get a model of this aircraft and Does anybody knows were can i find it? thank you in advance.ĭoes anyone know the colour,and name of the third aircraft GADEF? I'm intrested to find construction drawings of this fantastic aeroplane in order to built a replica. They have the Comet among their collection. When I last saw it construction was well advanced and George had a couple of men helping him with the project.Īt that time George also had a Beech D17, DH Dove, and a DH Rapide along with various other light aircraft in his hangars.įor those who want more information on this plane contact The Shuttleworth Collection. Interested parties please email me.ĭoes anyone know what happened to the replica DH 88 being built by George Lemay during the 1990's in Alberta Canada? The aeroplane is 2 /3 complete, with all remaining parts available. I own a controlling share in an authentic Comet replica that is being constructed in New Zealand. I have no coments I just want to know were I can get plans for this beautiful baby I remember this event as a 4year old living in Mildenhall.I have a back and white photo of it I took before in left Southend where it was parked in the years before Shuttleworth took it over to restore. I cannot comment on the 3rd but the first two do not refer to this aircraft but the post-WWII Comet jet passenger aircraft that had such tragic crashes following metal fatigue failures as described in the comments.
