Photo Comment

A Mignet "Flying Flea" hiding under the belly of a DC-3. This little aircraft was first registered in April 1936 and withdrawn from use three years later. Many years later the interesting and unusual biplane was acquired by the Science Museum and displayed at their rarely-opened Wroughton facility. In 2011 it was transferred to the "M" Shed Museum in Bristol.
