A question I have asked myself, could the DeHavilland Comet be converted to an inflight refueller? What is the opinion on this, as could it be done, would it be practical, or a waste of time?
My idea could be take a Comet 4, gut the fuselage, add 2-3 tanks in the space left as it was done in the VC10 conversion, add IFR pods on the wings and a centreline hose and drogue unit under the tail, replace RR Avons with Speys and add an IFR probe above the cockpit.
RAF Comet K.4 anyone?
Doable?
