Description: This is a repaint of the default FS2004 De Havilland Dh88 Comet. Depicted here the most famous Comet, G-ACSS 'Grosvenor House', after the MacPherson Robertson race when she was tested by the RAF at Martlesham. Whilst there it twice suffered a collapsed undercarriage. After the first collapse it was fitted with enlarged air intakes. After the second crash in September 1936 it was sold as scrap.

Not the end of her story though.....

In February 1938 G-ACSS left for Australia named "Australian Anniversary" from which it returned in March 1938.
