SHUTTLEWORTH DH.88 COMET RACER DAMAGED AFTER A LANDING INCIDENT...
The only airworthy original de Havilland DH.88 Comet nosed over after a Flying Proms display. The pilot was extracted and later discharged.
SCOTT: There is one airworthy original Comet. When a machine like that noses over after a display, it is a reminder that even the hangar queens we treat as jewelry are still airplanes — gravity does not care about the 1934 race.
