Comets were the only jet airliners to provide scheduled international services into Essendon. After they were withdrawn in 1965, flying out of Melbourne to Europe meant a domestic flight to Sydney or another transit port. The opening of Tullamarine airport in 1970 ended this inconvenience.

G-ANUB (15969) Boeing B.377 Stratocruiser "Calypso" of British Overseas Airways Corporation - BOAC, at Prestwick on Monday 13 July 1959, about to start-up and depart on her regular flight across the North Atlantic. It later went on to serve briefly with West African Airways Corporation - WAAC, of Nigeria. I believe it was broken up at Stanstead.
