SBAC show 1948. G-ALOI gathered dust in the F.G Miles hanger at Redhill for ten years until it was broken up for scrap in 1958.
Big clue-They tried to make a helicopter out of one of the airframes.. 
The Firth Helicopter. | |

The Firth Helicopter. | My first post on this site... but the original looks like the Planet Satelite. Designed by a Major Heenan in the late 40s in the UK. It had structural problems. | |
