By the way - guess who was the first passenger to fly in a commercial Jet airplane?

Haven't a clue. Will you tell me?

I do remember the story about the University president who agreed to be vaccinated to demonstrate how safe it was. He died.

I'll take your word for it that we can do this a little at a time and get where we need to be!

Paul - <EDITED: By the way - guess who was the first passenger to fly in a commercial Jet airplane?>

Was this person on a de Havilland Comet, May 2, 1952, on a flight from London to Johanasburg?

Oh. Never mind. You don't know either. I tried scouring the web, and found the 1st flight, but was unable to glean a passenger name.
