Havilland Comet

The Comet was the first jet-powered commercial passenger aircraft in the world. It made its first flight in 1949 and was developed by the former English company Havilland. The Comet characterizes itself by the 4 low-bypass engines, 2 on each side of the fuselage, mounted in the wings.

A derivative version of the Comet is the Nimrod fleet of the British Royal Air Force.
