Teh де Хэвилленд DH.104 Голубь — британский ближнемагистральный авиалайнер, разработанный и изготовленный компанией de Havilland. Конструкция, которая была преемником моноплана довоенного биплана Dragon Rapide, возникла из доклада Комитета Брабазона, в котором, среди других типов самолетов, содержался призыв к британскому ближнемагистральному фидеру для авиакомпаний.
