There is a batch of photos of Britain’s “Comet” jet just prior to their inauguration of commercial flights from London to Bombay scheduled for an early 1950’s fast 11 hours. There are many wire photos of Russian and Soviet Pilots who made many trans-polar flights from Russia to the U.S. in the 1930's. And a great photo of Major Generals LeJeune and Logan Feland. There are also some more modern photos including a Reuters “artists impression” image of the ATSF (Avion de Transport Supersonique Future) or in English the second generation Concorde SST which was envisioned to be a 200 passenger with a 12,000km range and speeds of Mach 1.8-2.2.
