In August 1963, a second Comet was ordered. The delivery of this second airframe established an unofficial record in early 1964, when it flew between London and Kuwait, a distance of 2,888 miles (4,648 km), at 461 miles per hour (742 km/h) on average. The fleet was ten strong at April 1965, including two Comet 4Cs, three DC-6Bs, two Twin Pioneers and three Viscount 700s; at this time the carrier had two Trident 1Es and three One-Elevens pending delivery. The first Trident was handed over by the aircraft manufacturer in March 1966, and the second followed in May the same year
