Miles M.6 Hawcon

06/30/2009. Remarks by Johan Visschedijk: "The sole Hawcon was a combination of the Hawk and Falcon design features. Produced for the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough, it was used to investigate the effect of wing thickness on the speed of an aircraft. For this purpose, four sets of wings were built, all with different thickness."
