DALLAS — Today, in 1958, British Overseas Aircraft Corporation (BOAC) launched 
the world's first jet-powered transatlantic flight.

Using the de Havilland Comet 4, BOAC beat rival Pan American to the post by 
just three weeks, operating the first jet service across the North Atlantic to 
New York. This was despite Pan Am launching a high-profile advertising 
campaign, announcing their intention to begin their service with the Boeing 707 
on October 26.

G-APDB operated the eastbound flight, and G-APDC operated the westbound. The 
two aircraft passed about 300 miles apart at 47°W and 1335°Z. Sir Gerard 
d’Erlanger, BOAC’s Chairman, aboard the westbound aircraft, and Basil 
Smallpiece, Managing Director, in the eastbound aircraft, exchanged messages 
during the flights.
