Historical Description of the DH.88 Comet Aircraft

The De Havilland DH.88 Comet was a racing machine adapted for an extremely long flight halfway across the world. Thanks to its two engines and innovative design, it was the first to complete the London-Melbourne route, setting a new flight time record. In doing so, it demonstrated the excellence of British aviation in the interwar period and provided a stimulus for the further development of civil aviation.

Who is it recommended for?

The kit is an excellent choice for intermediate and experienced modelers (difficulty level 4/5). Thanks to realistic details and the possibility to faithfully reproduce a historical winner, we also recommend this model to enthusiasts of interwar aviation and fans of famous air races. The product is perfect both for individual projects and professional exhibitions.
