Designing the De Havilland Comet-4
...The infamous "metal fatigue" airliner used as a standard case study in Mech Props lectures... I really appreciate its design so I decided to make a model of it (and to fill Phil's request of making something "civil" ^O^). Designing an airliner is really not as hard as a fighter jet, after just two days of work it's already beginning to take shape. But since this is a subject from the fifties I had trouble finding photo references and might have to go see the real thing... Any help would be appreciated ^^
