Mr Heeley researched this engine with permission from the Yorkshire Aircraft Museum Collection at Newark, who have full size examples. The original engines were designed by Frank B Halford and built by de Havilland. Halford's design was based on the design pioneered by Sir Frank Whittle using a centrifugal compressor. When Sir Frank Whittle showed that jet propulsion was feasible, practical and logical, the main engine manufactures realised this was the power plant of the future. They set all the engine designers to work and eventually all produced a good working power plant. Some where better than others. One of the outstanding early ones was the de Havilland 'Ghost' Frank B Halford and his design team working for de Havilland aircraft company designed the first 'Jet' engine the H1 which was later named the 'Goblin'. It was a very successful unit and the DH 100 'Vampire' twin tail fighter was designed to use it. The Gloster aircraft company had built the F9/40 Meteor which was to be powered by two Whittle engines but these were delayed so two H1 engines were installed in the protype for its first test. The next generation of this engine was the H2 It was built in 1945 and became the 'Ghost' which was originally designed to power the DH 112 Venom. In the DH 100 Vampire it set a new height record. In the DH 108 Swallow it set a new speed record. In the DH 106 Comet it powered the worlds first jet airliner. And so this model illustrates a part of an impressive record of aviation firsts and developments in the use of jet engines in the aero industry.
