The de Havilland Aircraft Company played an important role in the history of aircraft development in 20th century Britain, which created world beating aeronautical innovations including many iconic aircraft such as the de Havilland Mosquito – The Wooden Wonder, the Comet – the world’s first jet airliner, the Tiger Moth – the “backbone" of the RAF’s training aircraft in WW2 and the Airspeed Horsa Glider – used extensively by our airborne troops in 1944 during D-Day, Arnhem and the Rhine crossing.
