Auto Credit Based on Insertname's De Havilland D.H.88 Comet (Jim's Salute)

WARNING: THIS AIRCRAFT IS NOT MINE! I GIVE FULL CREDIT TO INSERTNAME.
The de Havilland DH.88 Comet is a 1930s racer designed and built specifically for the MacRobertson Air Race of 1934. In the event it came first and fourth, with the third aircraft not completing the race. As well as this it also set many long distance records and is good to fly.
I might go as far as saying that this is the best handling plane I have ever flown on SP. Insertname did an amazing job on the aircraft and I hope he won't mind me sharing it so yet more people can enjoy it.
