Why we're a bit like the De Havilland Comet

Did you know 60 years ago this week the first jet airliner, the British De Havilland Comet, made its maiden test-flight in England?

The jet engine cut air travel time in half, by enabling planes to climb faster and fly higher, and ultimately revolutionised the airline industry.

Think of Firebrand Training as the De Havilland Comet of the IT training business! Our unique methods have trained and certifed over 17,000 people in around half the time of other approaches.

Comet models suffered from catastrophic metal fatigue, causing a string of well-publicised accidents.
The planes were withdrawn and the Comet redesigned.
Perhaps not the best comparison to your business...

Hi Phill,

Thanks for your comment.

The idea behind this is that the De Havilland Comet was the first jet airliner and landmark in British aeronautical design.

This more or less relates to us whereby we started as a small company providing accelerated training, made progress and now the leading provider in accelerated learning.
