The Nene Viking was certainly the first mating of an airliner
fuselage to jet power and the first jet to be capable of
employment as an airliner (engine and type certification aside).


The Nene was not mated to the Viking airframe to produce an jet-powered
Viking airliner, it was purely for the development of the Nene engine.
