Notes:
This is the de Havilland Comet. This aircraft I created is the first ever jet passenger aircraft. In game it has a top speed of 450 MPH, which is extremely fast. The aircraft is in the British European Airways livery, as they operated the comet. Originally, I wanted to make it in the BOAC livery, but I took one look at that, and chose the BEA livery. I need to give credit on this creation. The cockpit wasn't even mine. @chickenisderp gracefully took my design, and added a realistic cockpit to it, which was very helpful of them. @Ayou2005 and my other half, @PlanePlaneThe66373637 created the BEA logos I needed. I didn't use them, due to fuselage issues, but the effort they put in, deserves to be mentioned.

Wikipedia Explains:
The de Havilland DH.106 Comet was the world's first commercial jet airliner. Developed and manufactured by de Havilland at its Hatfield Aerodrome in Hertfordshire, United Kingdom, the Comet 1 prototype first flew in 1949. It featured an aerodynamically clean design with four de Havilland Ghost turbojet engines buried in the wing roots, a pressurized cabin, and large square windows. For the era, it offered a relatively quiet, comfortable passenger cabin and was commercially promising at its debut in 1952.
