This is a De Havilland Comet, not the raceplane, but the first commercial production jet airliner. Ever since I saw the front section of one of these planes at the museum of aviation in Sharjah I have been fascinated with this plane, and in my opinion it is one of the most beautiful airliners ever created. This plane is also a first for me as it is the first plane I have made with a somewhat interactive cockpit. It flies beautifully, so please download and enjoy! :D (Use VTOL controls for doors)
*Update* I never expected this plane to become an increadibly highly rated plane under the airliners tag and I certainly did not expect this plane to ever get 1,400 downloads. Thankyou to all who supported it, this community is amazing!

I made a DH-106C out of your plane. Feel free to ask me to take it down
(Yoke Peter flashbacks intensify)

I also saw this in Sharjah this is really great
meu deus no meu jogo ficou de noite a nuvem ficou preta deu muito medo que eu voltei
@WWIIPlaneBuilder Very true, although the Comet II which looked almost the same as the comet I so you could just call it that instead xD
XD gr8 work... I think the worst and surprising thing about this a/c is that they kept crashing because of the lack of knowledge about the effect of high speeds and other factors
very nice and smooth.
I like it ,it is really stable.
Halved version Hope this will do, if you want a different size just ask. Sorry, but in return could you try and use your skills to make a miles falcon canopy/upper fuselage bit, for my Macrobertson thing
@Luxray00 what de Havilland? xD They're a real plane company, and besides what's in a name... The plane's look nothing like each other. That and I'd never heard of you before.
hey you copy the name of my plane
Words cannot describe the comet's beauty...
Nice plane, with sleek design.. I love it!
@Johndfg cheers, I'm really pleased :D
Congrats on the feature
Thank you all for the amazing support this place has received, ( my rating thingy had practically doubled overnight) . In the works for my next project is a Lockheed TriStar. This one will hopefully have an interactive cabin view :D
I just crash your plane , the right wing tip fell off so i turned off the two left engine ( i set them both to group 1 ) and it balance it self . I could literally fly it !
way better than me.
You are bronze, and yet you made the most comet-like comet I've seen so far. Good work.
You were just given a shoutout, but if you keep making quality work I'll give you one later :)
I've given you a shoutout sir, hopefully it will help gain your beautiful areoplane some attention.
