Miles Aircraft Limited

[old man emu]

Miles was the name used between 1943 and 1961 to market the aircraft of British engineer Frederick George Miles, who, with his wife – aviator and draughtswoman Maxine "Blossom" Miles – and his brother George, designed numerous light civil and military aircraft and a range of curious prototypes.

 

Most well-known of the aircraft produced are the Magister and Gemini, but Miles Aircraft Company produced nearly 50 different aircraft, or aircraft designs. During WWII, Miles Aircraft were the sort of unsung heroes as they were mostly involved in the production of aircraft for training purposes, both for ab initio, advanced and gunnery training. Like all British aircraft designers, they were involved in research into supersonic flight, and for post-war civil transport. Since their main business during the war was the production of established designs, their aircraft design people could be set to complete research designs without affecting contract production.
