Look waht I'm flying...

A Miles Kestrel, the Master better performer ancestor. It could be a terrific emergency fighter! Only 15 miles slower than the Hurricane with a Kestrel 765Hp engine...

The wheels don't turn... All other animations worked fine... Looking at it, you see that RAF could built a fine low cost emergency fighter to complement Spitfires and Hurricanes. It seems an Arab stallion! The airfile I did is near the real think but needs more tests...

Have you come across the Miles M.20 or the Miles M.24? Almost exactly what you are thinking of.

The M.9 Kestrel was cleaner and faster than the Miles M.24, a Miles M.9a Master trainer derivative. RAF raises instrctor seat, modified radiator position and changes fuselage to a more pedestrian (and easy to build) form. All these changes affected performance. Speed dropped 100KPH! They pratically kept only wings and horizontal stabilizer of the original plane...
