After finishing fourth in the London - Melbourne race and before its sale to France as F-ANPY, the green Comet had a gig flying the 1934 Christmas mail from Brussels to the Belgian Congo, crewed by Ken Waller and Teddy Franchomme. The aircraft wore Queen Astrid's name for the occasion. Photo from: Nationaal Archief (Netherlands) This photo was added on 30 November 2020, and has since been viewed 1747 times. |
