The Comet was the world's first jet airliner but was plagued by crashes due to metal fatigue. This aircraft, the last Comet 1, was then used for tests, having the square cabin windows replaced by oval ones. She is preserved in BOAC colours although this airframe never flew for the airline.

Once part of the Cosford collection, when the aircraft was eventually broken up, the front section was beautifully restored and is now displayed in the Museum of Flight

Ordered as a Sunderland Mk IV for the RAF, completed as a Seaford and then converted to a Solent for BOAC, this British flying boat ended up in the United States in 1954. It appears in the Indiana Jones movie Raiders of the Lost Ark, but is incomplete.
