My wife much enjoyed watching a video of Steve Rickett's model of the Miles M.39: an aircraft designed and first flown by her father George Miles. We realised that making large-scale models is the only way we will ever see his (and other Miles) designs flying and wondered if any of your members would accept some form of sponsorship to make, own, fly and film particular Miles designs? We are thinking of the 1957 single-engine jet trainer the M.100 (full size at Woodley) or its Fantail derivative, or /and the 1937 M9 Kestrel, which was the prototype for the Miles Master RAF trainer and, at its time, the fastest wooden single-engine aircraft, of great beauty.
I look forward to hearing from you
Jim Pratt
