	De Havilland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		de Havilland continued to produce high-performance aircraft including the high-speed twin-piston-engine DH.88 Comet mailplane, one of which became famous in its red livery as the winner of the MacRobertson Air Race from England to Australia.
		The de Havilland Comet was put into service in 1952 as the eagerly-anticipated first commercial jet airliner, twice as fast as previous alternatives and a source of British national pride.
		de Havilland Canada was formed in 1928 to build Moth aircraft for the training of Canadian airmen and continued after the war to build its own designs suited to the harsh Canadian operating environment.

	De Havilland Goblin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Goblin, originally the Halford H-1, was an early turbojet engine designed by Frank Halford and built by de Havilland.
		It was the primary engine of the de Havilland Vampire, and was to have been the engine for the F-80 Shooting Star (as the Allis-Chalmers J36) before that design switched engines due to production delays.
		The Goblin was later expanded into the larger de Havilland Ghost, with the model numbers continuing from the last marks of the Goblin.

		Man konzentrierte sich daraufhin bei de Havilland auf den Passagierflugzeugbau und brachte mit der Comet auch das erste wirtschaftlich Erfolgreiche Düsenpassagierflugzeug auf den Markt, das seinen Erstflug 1949 absolvierte und ab 1952 in den Liniendienst ging.

	de Havilland Comet - design
		His H.1 turbojet, later to be known as the Goblin, was available and, better still 'in house' being built by one of the de Havilland group of Companies - the de Havilland Engine Division.
		It was unique aeroplane for de Havilland, not only in it's use of jet power in a passenger aircraft, but also because it was the first time an all metal stressed skin type of construction had been built by the company.
		A de Havilland innovation - subsequently to become standard practice on all passenger turbojets - was to use compressed air taken directly off the engine's compressors for cabin pressurization but for a while this practice caused problems with engine over-heating.

	History of the De Havilland aircraft manufacture Company
		From one of the most successful families of light aircraft in the inter-war years through to research into guided weapons systems in the 1960s, there are few nations in the world that haven't been influenced by de Havilland in the field of aeronautics.
		By far the best-known de Havilland machines of the period were the 'Moth' family; the first to appear was the D.H.60 Moth in 1925.
		The construction of the Vampire and Venom relied on de Havilland's continuing use of wooden manufacturing techniques, the forward fuselage ahead of the engine was made of the same materials as those used in the Mosquito.
