The English De Havilland Comet is truly one of the world’s most beautiful aircrafts. The Comet I was one of the world’s first commercial jet transports. The larger, more powerful Comet IVa carried 60 people with a cruising speed of over 490 miles per hour. A full Comet IVa had a range of 2,730 miles and cruising altitude of 42,000 feet. This Hawk model kit celebrates the early days of commercial air travel. Originally released in 1959, the kit has been struck from its original molds. It features fine panel lines and includes decals reminiscent of the airliners of the era.
