The Grosvenor House DeHavilland Comet replica did a couple of fly-bys at Brodhead. Sorry for the shaky video, but he just popped up out of nowhere and I had to run to get an open view and still had to use extreme zoom. Very cool airplane!!

  • I believe the chaseplane is a Falco, one of which I buiit and owned. Could be wrong, hard to tell.

  • what an amazing and beautiful plane!

    just imagine it, rebuilt with modern materials (karbon fiber e.g.) and motors. it would break the speedrekord for piston engined planes.

    i wish i had the time to build one!

  • This is sweet! my faveourite plane!

  • I'm in love! It's beautiful! I couldn't tell what the chase plane was, a Navion maybe?

  • I remember I saw a dh 88 fly a hatfield in 1992. Absolutaly stunnning

  • The original G-ACSS was named after the Grosvenor House Hotel, in London.

    (It's pronounced "Grove-nur" [Winks]...) This lovely replica was built in the USA a few years ago. I keep looking for more footage of this on YT, but there is only this and one other short in-cockpit clip. Thanks for posting it...! The original was restored to fly in the UK, but the woos's never fly it...!!!
