Until it's released (early June) even with a 5 GBP / 6 Euro / 8 USD discount.

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the universe is for it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more inexplicable.
There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

fantastic, i always wanted this plane.
Only thing that worries me a bit is that it is coming from just flight.
their stuff is not bad, but such iconic aircraft needs captain sim like treatment.

Do we know if just flight is developer or only a publisher?
If they are only a publisher, there still is a chance we will get more than just good looking model

It looks Aeroplane Heaven-ish enough for me to stay away from it. Textures, ground animations and 3D cockpit are really reminiscent of the Constellation which really failed to impress me.

Cheers

Those who want a good comet need look no further than David Malbys Comet .
It's freeware and really authentic. Great VC which can be flown without pop ups because all buttons etc in cockpit work.
That and the Trident are my best FSX planes - payware or freeware.

I have taken the plunge and bought Just flights Comet.

It is not bad, it sounds nice, it flies well.
This would be really good product if there was some nice cockpit weathering, something
like Captain sim does to their aircraft. I also cant escape the thought that pit looks
little cartoonish as well.

If you like comet as an historic aircraft, i can recommend it, but don't expect PMDG
or Captain Sim like product, shame really as Comet does deserve top class treatment.
