Tupolev Tu-104 NATO Code: Camelby jaglavaksoldier16,854 views
@turricaned Also you guys were still recovering from the war so I think you guys would be allowed a bit of a "mulligan".In all actuality the Comets failure probably saved 100's of lives. It was the "America Bashing" in the video that got my blood boiling. Had 3 family members that joined up in WWII that joined because of Pearl Harbor and got sent to Europe and not the Pacific front. One came back in a bodybag so I apologise for my coarse wording.

@Cougar139tweak Well, it was tested, but it was tested in sections rather than as a whole - perfectly reasonable given the knowledge at the time, but not enough when pushing the envelope as they did. Also FWIW I'm a limey - the fact is that the UK at the time did have an R&D lead on the US in aviation terms. However even if the Comet had been a success we lagged severely in terms of mass production techniques.

@antimatterXXXIII I think they call those people Management.

@turricaned Good point, sorry,..... limeys get my blood boiling with that kind of talk. You're right, also in post war they were in a rush to get out new technology before it was properly tested.

@Cougar139tweak Not cool. The 707's designers admitted that they would have had exactly the same issues with metal fatigue (and overrotation) had the Comet investigation not happened. Alas, sometimes being the first is a curse as much as an achievement.

Leave behind America hey old boy? from 30 000ft to 0 in a matter of seconds.

@camilleri63 This was in an A320, I think it was a digital meter which was showing the angle of landing. Pilots confused and set up speed instead of angle.

@camilleri63 I remember that Comet crashes were due to decompressions due to metal fatigue or a square window collapsed because of it's square scheme at an edge.

@TheMightyHartley I hope that the rest of the episodes will be uploaded.

This is one of the best programmes Channel Four has ever produced. It's both fascinating and frightening.
