VISUAL DESCRIPTION
In this classic advertisement from Titanine Limited, we see the iconic de Havilland Comet jet airliner soaring through the skies. As the world's first commercial jetliner, it revolutionized air travel with its speed and comfort when introduced in 1952. This ad proudly states that "the COMET is finished with TITANINE materials," aligning Titanine products with de Havilland's reputation for innovation and excellence in aerospace engineering. Unfortunately, despite its groundbreaking design and initial popularity among airlines and passengers alike, early models of the Comet suffered catastrophic structural failures due to metal fatigue—a stark reminder of both technological progress' potential risks.
