Badly injured pilot Flyiing offiicer Clements I think decieded to tame the plane , took it up & aerobats , henry must have had kittens seeing his plane butcherd
early models hed Napier Naid jets , later models of Jindy flew with viper engines with annulare combustion chamber being seen as expendble, turns out that viper engine lasted well was used in trainer A /C . i think The macchi.

Two were built see
