Miles Peregrine
Interwar (1919–1938)
The Miles M.8 Peregrine was a 1930s British twin-engined monoplane light transport designed by Miles Aircraft Limited. A promising design, the Peregrine never entered production as the company was preoccupied by fulfilling orders for other types to the RAF. Only two of the model were built, one prototype M.8 Peregrine, and one modified M.8A Peregrine II which was used for experimental work at Royal Aircraft Establishment.
