Had a great chance to get into a Comet 4C under restoration at the Museum of Flights Restoration Center at Paine Field.
Enjoy!

Being a Ham, I love that straight key :-) although I preferred a paddle keyer myself...

Jeremy do they know when it will be completed?

Probably not for a few more years anyways, and it will not fly. The interior, according the project manager is 85-90% finished, but the exterior, particularly the aft section and wings, have a long way to go.

Fantastic photo set Jeremy! A lot of history there.
