DH 88 – Comet
Designed by the De Havilland company in 1934 for the England to Australia air-race challenge. Three copies of the design were produced for private entrants to the race – at a cost of £5,000 each – with the winner being the Grosvenor House (G-ACSS) entry in a time of 71 hrs. The mandatory route was from England – Baghdad – Allahabad – Singapore – Darwin – Melbourne, with any other required stops for fuel, repairs etc as required. An elegant aircraft and an early example of ‘if it looks right it will fly right’ philosophy.
The Grosvenor House DH 88 had a relatively smooth passage apart from dealing with thunderstorm weather on the approach to Singapore – as depicted in the image above.
Have been interested in photography since just after WW2, when film became freely available again, using Kodak Autographic equipment. Graduated, in the 50's, to 35mm and was involved in photographic work during my 17 yrs as RAF aircrew - navigator. Since retirement and migrating to Canon digital equipment have been involved with two of my sons and one grandson in a considerable amount of photographic activity, particularly composite images. Now producing digital art prints with the major emphasis on classic warbird aviation. With son, Duncan, now becoming a well-known and published wild life photographer we have started, in 2017, a new gallery reflecting Scottish sea birds - and 'feathered' flight
