Air Crash Investigation 2015: BOAC Flight 781 DeHavilland Comet 'Mid Air Explosion'
On Sunday 10 January 1954, British Overseas Airways Corporation Flight 781, a de Havilland DH.106 Comet 1, registered G-ALYP,[1] took off from Ciampino Airport in Rome, Italy, en route to Heathrow Airport in London, England, on the final leg of its flight from Singapore. At about 10:51 GMT, the aircraft suffered an explosive decompression at altitude and crashed into the Mediterranean Sea, killing everyone on board. The accident aircraft was the third Comet built.[2]
Gerry Bull, a former BOAC engineer, said that when he inspected the aircraft in Rome he looked for "incidental damage". He did not find any, so he believed Flight 781 was fit for flight. Bull and the same team of engineers later examined South African Airways Flight 201 before its final flight.[3]
On 10 January 1954, the flight took off at 09:34 GMT for the final-stage flight to London. At about 09:50 GMT BOAC Argonaut, G-ALHJ piloted by Captain Johnson, which was flying the same route at a lower altitude was in contact with Captain Gibson. During a radio communication about weather conditions, the conversation was abruptly cut off. The last words heard from Captain Gibson were "George How Jig, did you get my -". Soon afterwards wreckage was seen falling into the sea by fishermen.
Heathrow Airport initially listed Flight 781 as being delayed; around 1:30 PM the airport took the flight off the arrivals board.[3]
There is speculation that it was shot down? Was it?

Official findings concerning BOAC Flight 781 and South African Airways Flight 201 were released jointly on 1 February 1955, in Civil Aircraft Accident Report of the Court of Inquiry into the Accidents to Comet G-ALYP on 10 January 1954 and Comet G-ALYY on 8 April 1954. After the equivalent of 3,000 flights simulated with G-ALYU, investigators at the RAE were able to conclude that the crash of G-ALYP had been due to failure of the pressure cabin at the forward ADF window in the roof. This window was one of two apertures for the aerials of an electronic navigation system in which opaque fiberglass panels took the place of the window glass. The failure was a result of metal fatigue caused by the repeated pressurization and de-pressurization of the aircraft cabin. Another fact was that the supports around the windows were riveted, not glued, as the original specifications for the aircraft had called for. The problem was exacerbated by the punch rivet construction technique employed. Unlike drill riveting, the imperfect nature of the hole created by punch riveting caused manufacturing defect cracks, which may have caused fatigue cracks to start around the rivet. The investigators examined the final piece of wreckage with a microscope.

This is wonderful story titled, "The First Jetliner" produced in 1990 by Chicago's Public Television station, WTTW. It's about the De Havilland Comet jet airliner and the major impact it had on the postwar airline industry. This TV program not only presents the complete story of the Comet, but also discusses the airliners that would compete against it such as the little known, Canadian built, Avro C. 102 Jetliner and the much better known jet airliners, the American built Boeing 707 and the Douglas DC-8. Comments by people who were instrumental in the making of the Comet are included such as Comet project engineer, David Newman and Comet test pilot, John Cunningham. There's also a short segment where Boeing 707 test pilot Tex Johnston discusses his famous barrel roll maneuver over the Seattle area to impress numerous airline officials on the ground who were looking into possibly purchasing the 707. Finally, the program looks at a group of people, many of them members of the O'Hare Rotary Club, who were dismantling a former Mexicana De Havilland Comet that had sat for years in derelict condition on the northeast side of Chicago's O'Hare Field. Their goal was to save the aircraft for eventual display at the National Air & Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution at Washington D.C. (sadly, after this program originally aired, that Comet would eventually be scrapped). My apologies regarding the first few seconds missing from this television program. Anyway, hope you enjoy this historic bit of aviation and airline history. Happy Landings!

On Sunday 10 January 1954, British Overseas Airways Corporation Flight 781, a de Havilland DH.106 Comet 1 registered G-ALYP, took off from Ciampino Airport in Rome, Italy, en route to Heathrow Airport in London, England, on the final leg of its flight from Singapore. At about 10:51 GMT, the aircraft suffered an explosive decompression at altitude and crashed into the Mediterranean Sea, killing everyone on board. The accident aircraft G-ALYP was the third Comet built. Gerry Bull, a former BOAC engineer, said that when he inspected the aircraft in Rome he looked for "incidental damage". He did not find any, so he believed Flight 781 was fit for flight. Bull and the same team of engineers later examined South African Airways Flight 201 bef... -

de Havilland Comet 4C for X-Plane: Part 1
Preview of the DH-106 Comet for X-Plane preparing to take off from London Gatwick (LGW/EGKK). The Comet Series 4 was a very different aircraft from the original Series 1 of 1952: it was larger, twice as powerful, with better instruments and totally revised structure and materials. It inaugurated the World's first trans-atlantic jet service, and was in service from 1958-1980. The 4C was the last production derivative. It combined the long-range wingspan and fuel tanks of the original Comet 4 with the longer, high-capacity fuselage of the Comet 4B. Dan Air owned no fewer than 49 Comets. When design started in 1946, a key specification was that it must operate from existing runways on "Empire Routes", and blend safely with piston-engined traffic on approach. This compromised top spee... -

FSX - Just Flight De Havilland Comet 4C Review
Novawing24 warps back to a bygone era of travel as he reviews the De Havilland Comet 4C from Just Flight. The De Havilland Comet was the worlds first Commercial Jet Airliner and set the benchmarks for testing and future safety requirements. Sadly as such a pioneering aircraft design it suffered problems in its early life with several infamous crashes. Through these tragedies came better understanding of aerodynamics and leaps forward in safety for future aircraft. The Comet 4C was the final variant used in civilian service, including being the worlds first Bizjet!

On Sunday 10 January 1954, British Overseas Airways Corporation Flight 781, a de Havilland DH.106 Comet 1, registered G-ALYP,[1] took off from Ciampino Airport in Rome, Italy, en route to Heathrow Airport in London, England, on the final leg of its flight from Singapore. At about 10:51 GMT, the aircraft suffered an explosive decompression at altitude and crashed into the Mediterranean Sea, killing everyone on board. The accident aircraft was the third Comet built.[2]
Gerry Bull, a former BOAC engineer, said that when he inspected the aircraft in Rome he looked for "incidental damage". He did not find any, so he believed Flight 781 was fit for flight. Bull and the same team of engineers later examined South African Airways Flight 201 before its final flight.[3]
On 10 January 1954, the flight took off at 09:34 GMT for the final-stage flight to London. At about 09:50 GMT BOAC Argonaut, G-ALHJ piloted by Captain Johnson, which was flying the same route at a lower altitude was in contact with Captain Gibson. During a radio communication about weather conditions, the conversation was abruptly cut off. The last words heard from Captain Gibson were "George How Jig, did you get my -". Soon afterwards wreckage was seen falling into the sea by fishermen.
Heathrow Airport initially listed Flight 781 as being delayed; around 1:30 PM the airport took the flight off the arrivals board.[3]

Heathrow Airport initially listed Flight 781 as being delayed; around 1:30 PM the airport took the flight off the arrivals board.
Official findings concerning BOAC Flight 781 and South African Airways Flight 201 were released jointly on 1 February 1955, in Civil Aircraft Accident Report of the Court of Inquiry into the Accidents to Comet G-ALYP on 10 January 1954 and Comet G-ALYY on 8 April 1954. After the equivalent of 3,000 flights simulated with G-ALYU, investigators at the RAE were able to conclude that the crash of G-ALYP had been due to failure of the pressure cabin at the forward ADF window in the roof. This window was one of two apertures for the aerials of an electronic navigation system in which opaque fiberglass panels took the place of the window glass. The failure was a result of metal fatigue caused by the repeated pressurization and de-pressurization of the aircraft cabin. Another fact was that the supports around the windows were riveted, not glued, as the original specifications for the aircraft had called for. The problem was exacerbated by the punch rivet construction technique employed. Unlike drill riveting, the imperfect nature of the hole created by punch riveting caused manufacturing defect cracks, which may have caused fatigue cracks to start around the rivet. The investigators examined the final piece of wreckage with a microscope.

This is wonderful story titled, "The First Jetliner" produced in 1990 by Chicago's Public Television station, WTTW. It's about the De Havilland Comet jet airliner and the major impact it had on the postwar airline industry. This TV program not only presents the complete story of the Comet, but also discusses the airliners that would compete against it such as the little known, Canadian built, Avro C. 102 Jetliner and the much better known jet airliners, the American built Boeing 707 and the Douglas DC-8. Comments by people who were instrumental in the making of the Comet are included such as Comet project engineer, David Newman and Comet test pilot, John Cunningham. There's also a short segment where Boeing 707 test pilot Tex Johnston discusses his famous barrel roll maneuver over the Seattle area to impress numerous airline officials on the ground who were looking into possibly purchasing the 707. Finally, the program looks at a group of people, many of them members of the O'Hare Rotary Club, who were dismantling a former Mexicana De Havilland Comet that had sat for years in derelict condition on the northeast side of Chicago's O'Hare Field. Their goal was to save the aircraft for eventual display at the National Air & Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution at Washington D.C. (sadly, after this program originally aired, that Comet would eventually be scrapped). My apologies regarding the first few seconds missing from this television program. Anyway, hope you enjoy this historic bit of aviation and airline history. Happy Landings!

The investigators examined the final piece of wreckage with a microscope.
wn.com/Boac Flight 781 Dehavilland Comet 'Mid Air Explosion'
There is speculation that it was shot down? Was it?
On Sunday 10 January 1954, British Overseas Airways Corporation Flight 781, a de Havilland DH.106 Comet 1 registered G-ALYP, took off from Ciampino Airport in Rome, Italy, en route to Heathrow Airport in London, England, on the final leg of its flight from Singapore. At about 10:51 GMT, the aircraft suffered an explosive decompression at altitude and crashed into the Mediterranean Sea, killing everyone on board. The accident aircraft G-ALYP was the third Comet built.
Gerry Bull, a former BOAC engineer, said that when he inspected the aircraft in Rome he looked for "incidental damage". He did not find any, so he believed Flight 781 was fit for flight. Bull and the same team of engineers later examined South African Airways Flight 201 before its final flight.
On 10 January 1954, the flight took off at 09:34 GMT for the final-stage flight to London. At about 09:50 GMT BOAC Argonaut, G-ALHJ piloted by Captain Johnson, which was flying the same route at a lower altitude was in contact with Captain Gibson. During a radio communication about weather conditions, the conversation was abruptly cut off. The last words heard from Captain Gibson were "George How Jig, did you get my ...". Soon afterwards wreckage was seen falling into the sea by fishermen.
Heathrow Airport initially listed Flight 781 as being delayed; around 1:30 PM the airport took the flight off the arrivals board.
Official findings concerning BOAC Flight 781 and South African Airways Flight 201 were released jointly on 1 February 1955, in Civil Aircraft Accident Report of the Court of Inquiry into the Accidents to Comet G-ALYP on 10 January 1954 and Comet G-ALYY on 8 April 1954. After the equivalent of 3,000 flights simulated with G-ALYU, investigators at the RAE were able to conclude that the crash of G-ALYP had been due to failure of the pressure cabin at the forward ADF window in the roof. This window was one of two apertures for the aerials of an electronic navigation system in which opaque fiberglass panels took the place of the window glass. The failure was a result of metal fatigue caused by the repeated pressurization and de-pressurization of the aircraft cabin. Another fact was that the supports around the windows were riveted, not glued, as the original specifications for the aircraft had called for. The problem was exacerbated by the punch rivet construction technique employed. Unlike drill riveting, the imperfect nature of the hole created by punch riveting caused manufacturing defect cracks, which may have caused fatigue cracks to start around the rivet. The investigators examined the final piece of wreckage with a microscope.

Preview of the DH-106 Comet for X-Plane preparing to take off from London Gatwick (LGW/EGKK). The Comet Series 4 was a very different aircraft from the original Series 1 of 1952: it was larger, twice as powerful, with better instruments and totally revised structure and materials. It inaugurated the World's first trans-atlantic jet service, and was in service from 1958-1980. The 4C was the last production derivative. It combined the long-range wingspan and fuel tanks of the original Comet 4 with the longer, high-capacity fuselage of the Comet 4B.
Dan Air owned no fewer than 49 Comets. When design started in 1946, a key specification was that it must operate from existing runways on "Empire Routes", and blend safely with piston-engined traffic on approach. This compromised top speed. By the mid-1960s, large airports had upgraded their runways, the Comet was no longer competitive on major routes. However, the Comet could fly to small airports with challenging approaches which made it ideal for tourist operators. Dan air bought every second-hand Comet they could lay their hands on. Chances are, if anyone remembers seeing or flying in a Comet in the 1970s, it was with Dan Air.
This film demonstrates the quality of the X-Plane model by taking it from absolute cold dark start, through take-off, to a couple of thousand feet above the runway. It's based on the real Comet check lists, but with some agressive editing to keep the total length to roughly 10 minutes. The film is in four parts:
1: Initial Checks;
2: Engine Start;
3: Taxi;
4: Take Off.

Novawing24 warps back to a bygone era of travel as he reviews the De Havilland Comet 4C from Just Flight.
The De Havilland Comet was the worlds first Commercial Jet Airliner and set the benchmarks for testing and future safety requirements. Sadly as such a pioneering aircraft design it suffered problems in its early life with several infamous crashes. Through these tragedies came better understanding of aerodynamics and leaps forward in safety for future aircraft. The Comet 4C was the final variant used in civilian service, including being the worlds first Bizjet!

Катастрофа de Havilland Comet под Калькуттой
К западу от Калькутты бушевала мощная гроза, сопровождающаяся сильным дождём, когда в 16:35 местного времени (11:05 GMT) жители деревень Джагалгори (Jagalgori), Чанашампур (Chanashampur), Раданагар (Radhanagar) и Махишнан (Mahishnan), расположенных в 24—30 милях (40—50 км) к западу от Калькутты, увидели объятый ярким пламенем самолёт, который появился из грозовых туч, а затем врезался в высохшее русло реки. Катастрофа произошла на удалении 24 мили (39 км) по азимуту 277° (к западу) от аэропорта вылета[8]. О случившемся один из жителей деревни Дарога (Daroga), что к югу от места катастрофы, сообщил в полицейский участок в соседнем селе Джангипара (Jangipara). Прибыв на место, полицейский обнаружил два горящих крупных фрагмента, поэтому ошибочно решил, что столкнулись два самолёта. Так как ... -
Катастрофа de Havilland Comet под Неаполем
Yoke Yoke был зафрахтован у BOAC южно-африканской авиакомпанией South African Airways и выполнял рейс SA201 из Лондона в Йоханнесбург, пилотировал его при этом южно-африканский экипаж. 7 апреля лайнер вылетел из Лондона и без происшествий долетел до первой промежуточной остановки — Римского аэропорта Чампино. Следующей промежуточной остановкой на маршруте являлся Каир, куда самолёт должен был вылететь в этот же вечер. Предполётный осмотр самолёта проводил инженер наземной службы BOAC, который обнаружил, что на съёмной панели левой плоскости крыла ослабли 30 болтов, которые крепили эту панель к набору. Причиной этого, как выяснилось, был демонтаж панели в Лондоне во время проведения регламентных работ, после чего панель установили на место. Также после окончания заправки выяснилось, что дат... -
Катастрофа de Havilland Comet возле Эльбы
Всего на борту авиалайнера помимо 6 членов экипажа находились также 29 пассажиров, включая 10 детей, возвращавшихся после рождественских каникул обратно в Англию. Также среди пассажиров был и известный британский журналист BBC Честер Уилмотruen[4]. Вес и центровка самолёта не выходили за пределы допустимого[3]. В 09:31 борт G-ALYP вылетел из римского аэропорта Чампино. В 09:50 экипаж доложил диспетчерскому центру в Чампино о прохождении радиомаяка Орбетелло. Далее полёт проходил над Тирренским морем. Параллельно с диспетчером, экипаж «Кометы» вёл радиопереговоры с другим самолётом авиакомпании BOAC — Argonaut C-4 борт G-ALHJ (позывные — George How Jig), вылетевшим из Чампино раньше.

The Geoffrey de Havilland Story (2015) - Trailer
The Geoffrey de Havilland Story is a drama documentary by commercial and display pilot Steve Bohill-Smith and award winning BAFTA nominated “Director of photography" Ashley Rowe BSC. The home made flying machine had just been rolled out of a shed in a field on the Highclere estate in Hampshire. It was the winter of 1909. After a few adjustments to the Iris engine ( his own design) all seemed to be running well. Over the preceding few weeks a number of short taxi trials had been made down the slope and the machine had been found to keep surprisingly straight. Nerves were becoming strained as the nights were closing in and the weather was invariably unfavourable, the wind often blowing in the wrong direction to attempt a first take off. Geoffrey de Havilland had not flown or even seen anot... -

К западу от Калькутты бушевала мощная гроза, сопровождающаяся сильным дождём, когда в 16:35 местного времени (11:05 GMT) жители деревень Джагалгори (Jagalgori), Чанашампур (Chanashampur), Раданагар (Radhanagar) и Махишнан (Mahishnan), расположенных в 24—30 милях (40—50 км) к западу от Калькутты, увидели объятый ярким пламенем самолёт, который появился из грозовых туч, а затем врезался в высохшее русло реки. Катастрофа произошла на удалении 24 мили (39 км) по азимуту 277° (к западу) от аэропорта вылета[8].
О случившемся один из жителей деревни Дарога (Daroga), что к югу от места катастрофы, сообщил в полицейский участок в соседнем селе Джангипара (Jangipara). Прибыв на место, полицейский обнаружил два горящих крупных фрагмента, поэтому ошибочно решил, что столкнулись два самолёта. Так как из-за грозы не работала радиосвязь, он послал гонца в участок, чтобы тот по проводному телеграфу сообщил о случившемся в полицейское управление в Калькутте. Авиадиспетчеры узнали о падении самолёта утром 3 мая, когда для поисковых работ уже были задействованы два самолёта индийских ВВС и два лайнера Avro York авиакомпании BOAC[14]. Диспетчеры сообщили экипажам информацию от полиции, после чего с самолётов подтвердили место падения «Кометы»[11].
Все 43 человека на борту рейса 783 погибли, при этом найти удалось только 40 тел, а остальные 3 сгорели в пожаре[11]. На тот момент по масштабам это была крупнейшая авиационная катастрофа в Индии[15].

Yoke Yoke был зафрахтован у BOAC южно-африканской авиакомпанией South African Airways и выполнял рейс SA201 из Лондона в Йоханнесбург, пилотировал его при этом южно-африканский экипаж. 7 апреля лайнер вылетел из Лондона и без происшествий долетел до первой промежуточной остановки — Римского аэропорта Чампино. Следующей промежуточной остановкой на маршруте являлся Каир, куда самолёт должен был вылететь в этот же вечер. Предполётный осмотр самолёта проводил инженер наземной службы BOAC, который обнаружил, что на съёмной панели левой плоскости крыла ослабли 30 болтов, которые крепили эту панель к набору. Причиной этого, как выяснилось, был демонтаж панели в Лондоне во время проведения регламентных работ, после чего панель установили на место. Также после окончания заправки выяснилось, что датчик центрального топливного бака не показывал, что бак полон. Как было установлено при проверке, для устранения данной неисправности требовалась замена коаксиального кабеля, который могли доставить только из Англии другим самолётом. Это привело к задержке рейса 201 на 24 часа. При замене кабеля часть болтов была откручена, но затем их заменили новыми и затянули должным образом. После выполнения ремонта инженер техобслуживания, который контролировал выполнение работ, провёл визуальный осмотр и был удовлетворён результатом[6][7][8].
Вопрос о том, насколько хорошо самолёт охранялся во время своего простоя в Чампино, впоследствии потребовал множество показаний и доказательств. Было установлено, что большую часть времени авиалайнер находился под наблюдением инспекторов BOAC. Остальное время самолёт охранялся Итальянской финансовой охраной, основной целью которой было недопущение попадания на самолёт контрабанды. На основании имеющихся сведений было сделано заключение, что посторонние лица на борт Yoke Yoke не проникали. Кроме проблемы с проводом при дозаправке, других замечаний по авиалайнеру не было[7].
8 апреля в 18:32 Yoke Yoke вылетел из аэропорта Чампино. На его борту помимо 7 членов экипажа также находились 14 пассажиров и небольшой груз авиазапчастей. Небо в это время покрывал толстый слой облаков, в верхнем слое наблюдалось лёгкое обледенение. Экипаж периодически передавал по радиосвязи в центр УВД в Чампино сведения о своём местонахождении. Последний сеанс связи с Римом состоялся в 18:57, когда экипаж доложил о прохождении траверза Неаполь и продолжении набора высоты до эшелона 35 000 футов (10 700 м). В 19:05 экипаж доложил в центр УВД в Каире о выходе из зоны УВД Рима и указал, что расчётное время прибытия в Каир 21:20. После этого самолёт на связь больше не выходил и на вызовы не отвечал. По мнению комиссии, катастрофическая ситуация произошла с авиалайнером примерно в 19:10 на высоте 35 000 футов или около этого[9][5][8][10].

Всего на борту авиалайнера помимо 6 членов экипажа находились также 29 пассажиров, включая 10 детей, возвращавшихся после рождественских каникул обратно в Англию. Также среди пассажиров был и известный британский журналист BBC Честер Уилмотruen[4]. Вес и центровка самолёта не выходили за пределы допустимого[3]. В 09:31 борт G-ALYP вылетел из римского аэропорта Чампино. В 09:50 экипаж доложил диспетчерскому центру в Чампино о прохождении радиомаяка Орбетелло. Далее полёт проходил над Тирренским морем. Параллельно с диспетчером, экипаж «Кометы» вёл радиопереговоры с другим самолётом авиакомпании BOAC — Argonaut C-4 борт G-ALHJ (позывные — George How Jig), вылетевшим из Чампино раньше. Примерно в 09:51 экипаж «Аргонавта» услышал радиосообщение, которое стало последним с «Кометы»: Джордж Хау Джиг, это Джордж Йоке Питер. Сообщите мне… (George How Jig, frown George Yoke Peter. Did you get my…). Сообщение прервалось посередине. Около 10:00 в диспетчерском центре Чампино услышали звук, который впоследствии посчитали за несмодулированный сигнал с «Кометы»[1].
Находящиеся на острове Эльба свидетели указывали, что слышали в небе три идущих подряд взрыва, после чего увидели, как падают горящие обломки[4].
Около 09:51 самолёт внезапно разрушился на высоте, которая была оценена примерно в 27 000 футов (8200 м). Примерно в 10:00, согласно показаниям четырёх свидетелей, горящие обломки авиалайнера врезались в воду[1]. В 11:50 военное руководство порта в городе Портоферрайо на острове Эльба получило сообщение, что к югу от мыса Каламита примерно в направлении острова Монтекристо взорвался в воздухе и потерпел катастрофу самолёт. Командующий портом Портоферрайро подполковник Ломбарди (итал. Lombardi) сразу направил к месту падения все доступные суда, а также врача и медсестру. Было обнаружено 15 тел, а также почтовые мешки, части самолёта и некоторые личные вещи. Судам помогала и авиация. Поисковые работы продолжались в течение двух следующих дней, но больше тел найдено не было, хотя и удалось обнаружить ещё несколько обломков[5].

In early 1954, De Havilland is at the forefront of commercial aviation, introducing the first passenger jet airliner to the world. On 10 January, 1954, a flight takes off in Rome at 10:31 AM to finish the last leg of its international journey, carrying children returning home for the school term, a famous BBC reporter and others travelling to Britain.
Approximately 30 minutes later, the plane disappears from radar at high altitude and crashes into the Mediterranean Sea. Authorities confirm that all 35 passengers and crew have died, and post-mortem examinations show unusual injuries to many victims.
As officials work to identify a cause, a second Comet plane crashes just three months later, with its victims also exhibiting similar injury patterns. With the entire fate of commercial jet aviation in jeopardy, Prime Minister Winston Churchill calls for a government investigation of the crash, examining everything from potential sabotage and conspiracy theories to possible faulty mechanics and human error.
What brought down this flight and what could have caused the victims' strange injuries?

This is another tutorial - this time the de Havilland Comet 1C - designed by myself. The design (and all my aircraft designs) is based off of Lord Dakr's plane designs.
If you build this please do credit me because it has taken me a long time to design the plane, then put it out as a tutorial!

The Geoffrey de Havilland Story is a drama documentary by commercial and display pilot Steve Bohill-Smith and award winning BAFTA nominated “Director of photography" Ashley Rowe BSC.
The home made flying machine had just been rolled out of a shed in a field on the Highclere estate in Hampshire. It was the winter of 1909. After a few adjustments to the Iris engine ( his own design) all seemed to be running well. Over the preceding few weeks a number of short taxi trials had been made down the slope and the machine had been found to keep surprisingly straight. Nerves were becoming strained as the nights were closing in and the weather was invariably unfavourable, the wind often blowing in the wrong direction to attempt a first take off. Geoffrey de Havilland had not flown or even seen another aeroplane at close quarters before.
You can see the result of the first flight attempt in this drama documentary “The Geoffrey de Havilland Story”. Five years in the making it covers Geoffrey’s early years in Nuneaton, the family move to Crux Easton, his discovery of engineering and aviation and his desire to fly. The words determination, courage and persistence spring to mind. Geoffrey de Havilland was a true aviation pioneer and was responsible for the design of many important aircraft, from the Be2 biplanes of WW1 to the DH Mosquito fighter bomber of WW2, to the first jet fighters post war to the first long range jet airliner the DH Comet. He created one of the largest aviation companies in the world which was always at the leading edge of technology. He was Knighted in 1944.

Un an après sa mise en service commercial les Comet commencent à connaître des problèmes ; trois d'entre eux sont détruits en plein vol au cours d'accidents assez médiatisés. Il est établi par la suite que ces accidents sont dus à la fatigue du métal sur les cellules, phénomène peu connu à l'époque. Le Comet est retiré du service et intensivement testé afin d'en découvrir la cause ; le premier incident a été attribué par erreur au mauvais temps. Les défauts de conception, dont les tensions dangereuses aux coins des hublots carrés et la méthode d'installation, sont immédiatement identifiés. En conséquence, le Comet est entièrement redessiné avec des hublots ovales, une structure renforcée et d'autres modifications. Entre-temps, les avionneurs rivaux tiennent compte des leçons tirés du Comet pour développer leurs propres avions.
Bien que les ventes ne soient pas entièrement redressées, le Comet 2 amélioré et le prototype Comet 3 conduisent au Comet 4, redessiné, qui fait ses débuts en 1958 et connaît une carrière de plus de 30 ans. Le Comet est adapté à de nombreux rôles militaires comme le transport VIP, médical et de passagers, ainsi que la surveillance. La plus importante modification aboutit à une version de patrouille maritime, le Hawker Siddeley Nimrod. Le Nimrod reste en service dans la Royal Air Force (RAF) jusqu'en juin 2011, plus de 60 ans après le premier vol du Comet.

An airplane or aeroplane (informally plane) is a powered, fixed-wing aircraft that is propelled forward by thrust from a jet engine or propeller. Airplanes come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and wing configurations. The broad spectrum of uses for airplanes includes recreation, transportation of goods and people, military, and research. Commercial aviation is a massive industry involving the flying of tens of thousands of passengers daily on airliners. Most airplanes are flown by a pilot on board the aircraft, but some are designed to be remotely or computer-controlled.
The Wright brothers invented and flew the first airplane in 1903, recognized as "the first sustained and controlled heavier-than-air powered flight".[1] They built on the works of George Cayley dating from 1799, when he set forth the concept of the modern airplane (and later built and flew models and successful passenger-carrying gliders).[2] Between 1867 and 1896, the German pioneer of human aviation Otto Lilienthal also studied heavier-than-air flight. Following its limited use in World War I, aircraft technology continued to develop. Airplanes had a presence in all the major battles of World War II. The first jet aircraft was the German Heinkel He 178 in 1939. The first jet airliner, the de Havilland Comet, was introduced in 1952. The Boeing 707, the first widely successful commercial jet, was in commercial service for more than 50 years, from 1958 to at least 2013.

* Scotland is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. Occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain, it shares a border with England to the south and is bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, and the North Channel and Irish Sea to the southwest. In addition to the mainland, Scotland is made up of more than 790 islands including the Northern Isles and the Hebrides.
L'Écosse, en anglais et scots Scotland, en gaélique écossais Alba, est une des quatre nations constitutives du Royaume-Uni. Occupant le nord de la Grande-Bretagne, elle est également constituée par un ensemble de petits archipels : Hébrides, Orcades, Shetland, etc. C'est également l'une des six nations celtiques. Sa capitale, centre financier et administratif, est Édimbourg, mais la plus grande ville est Glasgow, qui est historiquement la ville la plus industrielle du pays. Les autres grandes villes sont Aberdeen et Dundee, suivies par Stirling, Perth et Inverness.
* The de Havilland DH 106 Comet was the first production commercial jetliner. Developed and manufactured by de Havilland at its Hatfield, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom headquarters, the Comet 1 prototype first flew on 27 July 1949. It featured an aerodynamically clean design with four de Havilland Ghost turbojet engines buried in the wings, a pressurised fuselage, and large square windows. For the era, it offered a relatively quiet, comfortable passenger cabin and showed signs of being a commercial success at its 1952 debut. The Comet 4 was a further improvement on the stretched Comet 3 with even greater fuel capacity. The design had progressed significantly from the original Comet 1, growing by 18 ft 6 in (5.64 m) and typically seating 74 to 81 passengers compared to the Comet 1's 36 to 44. The Comet 4 was considered the definitive series, having a longer range, higher cruising speed and higher maximum takeoff weight. These improvements were possible largely because of Avon engines with twice the thrust of the Comet 1's Ghosts. Deliveries to BOAC began on 30 September 1958 with two 48-seat aircraft, which were used to initiate the first scheduled transatlantic services.
Le de Havilland Comet, appareil britannique, est historiquement le premier avion commercial propulsé par des turboréacteurs. Il est resté tristement célèbre pour une série d'accidents en plein vol qui a mis en évidence le phénomène de fatigue des structures dans l'aéronautique. Sur les premiers exemplaires, en raison de son plafond de croisière élevé et de sa cabine pressurisée, le fuselage était soumis à des efforts cycliques particulièrement propices à la propagation des fissures. Le Comet 4 vola en 1958. Cette version présentait beaucoup de modifications par rapport à la première, à commencer par un fuselage renforcé ainsi que des hublots ronds, tout ceci dans le but d'atténuer le problème de fatigue de la structure. Il était aussi plus long, le fuselage ayant été rallongé de 5,64 mètres par rapport à la première version, portant ainsi le nombre de passagers à 74, voire 81. Il offrait en outre un rayon d'action plus important, une vitesse de croisière plus élevée et une masse au décollage plus importante. Ces améliorations ont été en grande partie possibles grâce à l'adoption de nouveaux turboréacteurs Rolls-Royce Avon qui offraient une poussée deux fois supérieure aux turboréacteurs De Havilland Ghost de la première version. Malgré les problèmes rencontrés par la première version, la BOAC passa une commande de 19 exemplaires du Comet 4 en mars 1955. Le premier décollage de cette version eut lieu le 27 avril 1958, les livraisons débutant en septembre. Le premier vol commercial eut lieu entre Londres et New York le 4 octobre 1958. Ce vol fut le premier vol transatlantique régulier utilisant un avion à réaction, devançant de trois semaines le vol inaugural du Boeing 707 de la Pan Am.

* Prepar3D (P3D) is a simulation platform developed by Lockheed Martin.
* Glasgow is the largest city in Scotland. It is situated on the River Clyde in the country's West Central Lowlands. Glasgow est la ville la plus grande et la plus peuplée d'Écosse et la troisième agglomération du Royaume-Uni. Elle est située dans l'ouest de la partie centrale des lowlands écossaises. La ville se trouve au bord de la Clyde, fleuve qui se jette dans le Firth of Clyde à l'ouest. Le gentilé Glaswégien désigne aussi au singulier le dialecte local. Les coordonnées approximatives du centre de la ville sont 55°52' nord, 4°15' ouest.
* Glasgow International Airport is an international airport in Scotland, located 6 nautical miles (11 km; 6.9 mi) west of Glasgow city centre, near the towns of Paisley and Renfrew in Renfrewshire.
L'aéroport international de Glasgow est un aéroport international situé en Écosse, à 6 milles marins (11 km) à l'ouest de Glasgow.
* Scotland is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. Occupying the northern third of the island of Great Britain, it shares a border with England to the south and is bounded by the North Sea to the east, the Atlantic Ocean to the north and west, and the North Channel and Irish Sea to the southwest. In addition to the mainland, Scotland is made up of more than 790 islands including the Northern Isles and the Hebrides.
L'Écosse, en anglais et scots Scotland, en gaélique écossais Alba, est une des quatre nations constitutives du Royaume-Uni. Occupant le nord de la Grande-Bretagne, elle est également constituée par un ensemble de petits archipels : Hébrides, Orcades, Shetland, etc. C'est également l'une des six nations celtiques. Sa capitale, centre financier et administratif, est Édimbourg, mais la plus grande ville est Glasgow, qui est historiquement la ville la plus industrielle du pays. Les autres grandes villes sont Aberdeen et Dundee, suivies par Stirling, Perth et Inverness.
* The de Havilland DH 106 Comet was the first production commercial jetliner. Developed and manufactured by de Havilland at its Hatfield, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom headquarters, the Comet 1 prototype first flew on 27 July 1949. It featured an aerodynamically clean design with four de Havilland Ghost turbojet engines buried in the wings, a pressurised fuselage, and large square windows. For the era, it offered a relatively quiet, comfortable passenger cabin and showed signs of being a commercial success at its 1952 debut. The Comet 4 was a further improvement on the stretched Comet 3 with even greater fuel capacity. The design had progressed significantly from the original Comet 1, growing by 18 ft 6 in (5.64 m) and typically seating 74 to 81 passengers compared to the Comet 1's 36 to 44. The Comet 4 was considered the definitive series, having a longer range, higher cruising speed and higher maximum takeoff weight. These improvements were possible largely because of Avon engines with twice the thrust of the Comet 1's Ghosts. Deliveries to BOAC began on 30 September 1958 with two 48-seat aircraft, which were used to initiate the first scheduled transatlantic services.
Le de Havilland Comet, appareil britannique, est historiquement le premier avion commercial propulsé par des turboréacteurs. Il est resté tristement célèbre pour une série d'accidents en plein vol qui a mis en évidence le phénomène de fatigue des structures dans l'aéronautique. Sur les premiers exemplaires, en raison de son plafond de croisière élevé et de sa cabine pressurisée, le fuselage était soumis à des efforts cycliques particulièrement propices à la propagation des fissures. Le Comet 4 vola en 1958. Cette version présentait beaucoup de modifications par rapport à la première, à commencer par un fuselage renforcé ainsi que des hublots ronds, tout ceci dans le but d'atténuer le problème de fatigue de la structure.
