Photo Comment

On static display at the 1974 Hatfield Open Day. The sole example of this Miles design initially intended as a two-seat side by side military trainer, but which lost out to the Jet Provost and, after trials, was never accepted by the RAF in any form. Housed at Glasgow for a time but rarely flew. Re-registered as G-MIOO and moved to Duxford, where it was substantially damaged in a take off accident in 1985. The fuselage survives with the Museum of Berkshire Aviation.
