FLIGHT, 22 June 1951 Tfnr SIDE-BY-SIDE TWO-SEAT BASIC TRAINER (Leonides Engine) SELECTED FOR THE ROYAL AIR FORCE ". . . it remains only to be said that the Boscombe Down report on the aircraft was such as to be fairly described as eulogistic, the rate of roll (about 90 deg/sec) and the aileron response, in particular, being extraordinarily good. In the P.56, therefore, it would seem that the Royal Air Force can look forward to having a basic trainer which, for its designed sphere, is without doubt at the moment unrivalled." "Flight" Mayith, 1951. PERCIVAL AIRCRAFT LTD., LUTON, BEDFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND and at TORONTO, CANADA. A Hunting Group Company
