      Is it really that old? Time flies faster than the Comet. I also remember seeing this beautiful model flying when it was new. Great build and a very good pilot.

    Reminds me of Micheal Caine and Battle of Britain. "We either take off or we blow up." De Havilland made some beautiful aircraft. no doubt about it. Thanks for sharing Dom.

    I've seen the full-scale replica built by the late William "Bill" Turner, of Repeat Aircraft, Flabob Airport, Rubidioux, CA, fly on several occasions. It's a beautiful craft. And this model is impressive as well!

      @@EssentialRC listen carefully and you can hear the difference in RPM between eines thus out of sync. or one engine is working harder than the other and may pull the plane out of straightness, critical when tuning multi cylinder engines. Instead of looking for an argument go listen again then get new batteries for your hearing aids
