1938 - 2085.PDF
JULY 21, 1938. FLIGHT. ADVT. MONARCH The success of the outstanding aeroplane of 1937, the Miles Whitney Straight, might have encouraged us to rest upon our laurels for a time, with the complacent reflectipn that last year's aeroplane is quite likely to prove the world's best in its class for years to come. But we have redesigned, re-tooled and re-tested. Experience of 1937 has been applied in major and minor improvements throughout the 1938 model. The result is the MILES MONARCH a machine of wonderful stability and exceptional ease of handling; slow-landing speed and the ability to control the angle of glide at will; economy of operation and the highest cruising speed compatible with such super handling characteristics. 2/3 SEATER PERFORMANCE 145M.P.H MAXIMUM SPEED AT SEA LEVEL CRUISING SPEED 1 -2f\ AT SEA LEVEL i-J\J M.P.H RATE OF CLIMB QCO AT SEA LEVEL OD\J tt.
