The Fairey Firefly was a British fighter of the 1920s from Fairey Aviation.

It was a single-seat, single-engine biplane of mixed construction.

Development

The Firefly was a private-venture design, penned by Marcel Lobelle. It was first flown on 9 November 1925 by Norman Macmillan.[1]

The Air Ministry did not pursue the project, partly because of the American Curtiss engine used [2] and partly because of its wooden construction [1] and the Firefly I did not enter production.
