Miles M.77 Sparrowjet

The M.5 Sparrowhawk prototype survived the war and in 1953 was modified considerably by the installation of two 150kg thrust Turbomeca Palas jet engines to become the M.77 Sparrowjet with a speed of 370km/h.

As a boy, I was sometimes allowed to go to work with my father when Miles was based at Red Hill Aerodrome, I can recall seeing the fuselage on trestles in the hangar, minus the outer wings, but with engines fitted.
