Čaj Majls & Atvood trkač was a single-seat monoplane designed and built by the Miles Aircraft Company in England in 1938. It was intended to compete in the prestigious King’s Cup Race, a popular annual event that attracted many of the best pilots and aircraft of the time. The Racer was a sleek and streamlined machine, with a low-wing configuration and a retractable landing gear. It was powered by a de Havilland Gipsy Six engine that delivered 200 horsepower.
Racer je imao maksimalnu brzinu od 230 mph i domet od 600 milja. Pilotirao ga je Alek Henshav, poznati britanski avijatičar koji je kasnije postao probni pilot za Spitfire borca. Henšo je osvojio trku King's Cup u 1938 sa Racer, postavljanje novi rekord od 236.25 mph. On je takođe osvojio nekoliko drugih trka i aeromitinga sa Racer, što ga čini jednim od najuspešnijih i divio aviona svoje ere.
