No, I mean the prop driven comet... it's bright red, and has 2 piston engines...

...and its cool. any idea if they're putting gysey engines abck in or going up to the queens that have variable pitch. I recall this was one of the problems that de Havilland faced when building this aircraft. still, looks awesome doesn't it

There is only one G-ACSS, you said "a Comet". I thought G-ACSS has always been in flying condition?

only twigged it WAS that one they had stripped to bits when i posted the piccy.. couldn't be bothered editing.. after all, I am a bomber pilot..... just point it in roughly the right direction, make a cuppa and get everyone else to do the hard work
And I can't remember if the motors on it at the time were Gypseys or not... sorry
well I want one. who cares if its not the fastest any more, its such a graceful looking craft.

I've seen quite a few air racing servers for IL-2, now that the subject has been brought up, I might give it go when I get home...
