DHMosquito<p>Miles Magister This superb example of the classic WW2 trainer is seen at RAF Coningsby during the LLA Day. As well as being used as a trainer for Spitfire and Hurricane pilots in the Battle of Britain, these aircraft were sometimes issued to RAF fighter squadrons to use as liaison machines.
