A few more Miles behind us :)

David Molyneaux's latest gift will be up at Classic British Files this weekend.
He has produced another Miles nee P&P aircraft - the Whitney Straight but with a twist
its a twofer - he also modeled the Miles Monarch basically a three seat Straight.
This time They have been beta tested both in FS9 and FSX so it will port easily
with the usual caveats
David;s little group of Miles Builders are Brian Horsey Flight Model, Peter Watkins extra paints
Don Putnam - sound and a couple of out of work Virtual Airline pilots who ha d a ball flying it.
And thanks to Peter at the Miles preservation folks who provided alot of data for the aeroplane.
Here are some shots - scuse the slight jaggies - I think my processor is about ready to
give up the ghost
The Whitney Straight departing from Old Warden
The VC is common to both aircraft
The Door hinge (One of the ways to qucikly tell the Whitney Straight from the Monarch is
which side the single door is located The Whitney straight door is on the Left side
Yes it flies as good as it looks - Perfect for those VFR low and slow flights
Monarch panel in 2D the only way to tell the difference is read the makers plate on the bottom right
of the Panel
A little evening formation work at the Shuttleworth
Thats it - hopefully it will be released tomorrow (Saturday)
Thanks for looking
One of the lucky b*gg#rs who got to fly it early
