To be pedantic it's actually a Beagle Airedale. IIRC their were something like 44 built and many of them ended their days at RAF Bicester with their engines going into the RAFGSA Chipmunk glider tugs. Excellent news for the now Gipsy-free Chipmunk engineers and well, enough said about the engineless airframes the better....
Classic aircraft but 180hp Lycoming and a CS prop for all-round poorer performance than a 145hp FP prop C172..... You could sail the Atlantic on the wheel spats they are so huge and the attenuator egg-launcher exhaust looks great! Just watch your head on the flap hinges!
