6o FLIGHT JANUARY 2IST, 1943 TWIN-ENGINED TRAINER Airspeei ON these two pages are special sets of photographs takenby our chief photographer of the Airspeed Oxford iiits most recent stages of development. The top series of pictures shows the Mark V Oxford in the hands of Mr. R. E. M. B. Milne, who is seen seated at the controls in the centre photograph on the left-hand page. The Mark V, it will be remembered, is powered by two 450 h.p. Pratt and Whitney Wasp Juniors (A.N.6.B), with two-position controllable-pitch Hamilton Standard airscrews. A certain " wrigglyness" of outline of the machine in the top left- hand photograph is caused by the shot being taken at a very acute angle to the transparent roof of the Oxford from which the picture was taken.
