Description

The Miles Magister was a two-seat elementary trainer and communications aeroplane of the RAF of the late 1930s. Entering service in 1937, it became a key training aircraft. During the war it was purchased in large numbers for the RAF, the Fleet Air Arm and various overseas military operators. It proved an ideal introduction for the Spitfire and Hurricane new pilots and it was affectionately known as the ‘Maggie’.
